No you confusing a profit with the traitor :raspberry:
-
either way.. poor attitude
OV traveled with the team and skated before team practice this morning.
-
This will be a good test with a good team that has had our number. I'm gonna go with a 4-2 victory with McMike, Chykrun and Mangiopani scoring with an empty-netter by Willy.
-
And I was talking about our streak of poor play at AA Center in Dallas :)

Morning all. :wackysmile:
-
Lindgren vs Oettinger, both are from the same town and train with each other in the off season
-
Evenin'
I see Jake, but couldn't see if Mange or Lappy were out there.. Won't be surprised by either one. Seems like Lappy's been more visible lately though. Both have gone cold.
Jeez, hadn't realized Lappy hasn't scored yet this year. :-\ 0g-6a. Mange 6g-4a.

I was just listening to Carbery pregame, Lappiere is out, “needed a rest”. Caps media is fukin clueless.
Fever and van Riemsdyk are the only other two that haven’t scored yet, but they are Dmen. They do have a bunch of assists though.

The highlighter yellow is hard on the eyes.

PP time

GOOOAAALLLL
STROME

Must of been before they got word Mange was sick.
Decent period!! Got the lead! Stromer getting good at those deflections! PP looked like :poop: but oh well, we'll get another chance to start the 2nd.
-
nother pp . .

nother pp . . .

horrible pp

lot of nothing going on.

Prolly gonna wish we'd scored on one of those PP's.. :-\

PK time

:clown: :O=

Oh look, they know how to do it. :-(
:clown: :poop:
-
Duhaime
:)
-
good lad Duhaine. :clap: Dallas been taking far too many cheap shots at heads this game.
-
Nice scrap from Duhaime!
-
Now if we stop with all the patta cake bullslhit and take some shots......
-
:O= :O=
:clown: :poop:
-
OMG SHOOT THE FUCKING PUCK ALREADY!!
-
:clown: :clown: :poop: ::)
-
Caps down 2-1 after two
-
Our best period yet to come.
-
Got some work to do.. :poop: PP, the refs going blind and another Gorilla in goal gonna be hard to beat..
-
these zebras
-
3rd line is dead lately. Vranna and Lappy not helping Lars out much at all.
-
All the lines seem a bit skewwhiffy tonight.
-
nother pp . . . .
-
Gonna end up being a special teams loss. Can't go 0 fer 4 on the PP and expect anything good.
-
We seem very discombobulated. I didn't really understand the starting line up.
-
Fukin Carlson drop pass to the other team
:O= :O= :O=
-
That's that then. :-(
guess we were due.
-
:poop: :poop: :poop: :clown: :clown: :clown: Game over.
Tomorrow at 8:30pm
2 more w/o Ovi!!! Rich thinks 3, Black Ice 4. Alta says between 2-52.
-
Can't see Vrana sticking around for much longer
-
Pulling the goalie with that time left just to have an extra person to play pattacake with seems pretty pointless to me.

3 to 37 :raspberry:
-
Caps lose 3-1
-
I made it all the way through a game. Joy. :raspberry:
Hope we get the lines sorted out for tomorrow.
-
Night peeps. :yawn:
-
post game they are going to talk about what went wrong, they can start with 0 fer 4 on the pp and the pp looked worse than that
-
Can't see Vrana sticking around for much longer
I think you're right. For getting his "chance", I didn't even know he was in the game. Entire 3rd line is rubbish lately.
-

Don't blame the messenger...blame the Oettinger.
We have NEVER beaten that guy btw. Heard an interesting stat during the game...Otts has the highest "steal" rate in the NHL....wins over expected or some nonsense...meaning he wins more often than any other goalie when he shouldn't, based on the teams play and so on.
-
I guess he does. Looks 8' tall and 4' wide. Everyone we play has a gorilla in goal.
-
Carlson with a direct hand in two Dallas goals. Takes a penalty then throws it blindly into the corner in our end with 5 minutes left and that leads to a goal. He looked like his old self.
-
ya - Carlson was due a game like that. He actually has been playing pretty well this year - but could only go so long without a classic lazy giveaway.
Overall, I thought they played pretty well and deserve to win that game.

Overall I would agree, I think what lost that game was the power play. They didn’t convert and got zero momentum from all 4 of them.
