Happy Happy Joy Joy. 10:30pm start time. Love these west coast swings. :-|
-
Yeah don't think I will be able to hang in for all of this one. I got a feeling we throw a stinker tonight too. We due for one about now and LA owes us a beating.
Kinda odd Caps play east coast Sunday afternoon then fly LA, day off then play next day, then have back to back but have to travel to San Jose....then come back to LA. Odd they don't schedule both LA teams first then go to San Jose, but then when did the travel schedule ever make any sense.
Gonna be a rough week regardless with all the travel.
Prove me wrong ya bitches!
Go Caps
-
The same guys that do nascar’s schedule do the nhl schedule.
-
Must be the same guys. They probably get paid a pretty penny to do it as well. :(
-
Games starting so late I done forgot it was on, twice, this evening. :rofl: But Im here now! Let's go!! :raspberry:
-
I hate to point this out now, but, Willy is on pace for 47 goals and 91 points
-
PP time
-
He'd get 50 with a true #1 (or 2) Center. McMike could be the guy. He shows it in spurts.
Little Osh coming along nicely. I'd love to see an Ovi Strome Leonard line. Put em' out with Chicky and Roy.
-
Damn, where's that PP been?
-
PP GOOOAAALLLL
WILSON
-
That looked legit for a change! Multiple chances then paydirt!

Caps up 1-0 after one
-
Glad they look sharp tonight! I was sleepy before puck drop.
TV keeps showing ads for Shake Shack "Big Shack". Basically a Double QP w/cheese. I googled it. Closest one is Orlando. But they want 10$ for the thing? 8-0
I'll drive over to the beach, to the best diner in New Smyrna. Sit outside, have a nice waitress bring me a true FAT QP w/cheese, plate load of fries and a cup of coleslaw, while watching cute young buns walk by, for 10.99 Fast food joints be trippin these days. lol
-
If teams weren’t guarding OV so hard on the PP, he’d very nearly be a liability as well. As things stand, it opens everyone else up.
-
But they do and they have to. He's stood still on the PP for at least a decade. He's not an issue. Especially with Chychrun back there, who has some wheels if needed.

The last time I was on Amelia Island I had to wait until 11am to get a Jack and OJ at the beach front restaurant. I was starting to go through withdrawals man.

Chychrun has dual citizenship through his dad. He’s on the team Canada long list for the Olympics.

Caps win 3-1
Excellent respect given to Kopitar.
-
Dammit. Got too comfy after 1.. Woke up with 5 minutes to go. lol Yea, 11am is a little obnoxious. I'd of looked elsewhere! :snicker:
Nice salute to Kopitar!
Now I need to rewind and see if I can find Beauvi's goal. Nice road Dub!! See ya tomorrow @ 10pm!
*And, we won the Special Teams Battle for a change!! :)
-
Tomorrow at san josi, 10 pm game. With the short turnaround I expect the same lines, Lindy in net.
-
Hot damn. I managed to stay awake for the whole game. Wait…did I? Or is this a dream that the Caps actually played a good game and win the special teams battle? Sure seemed real. I must’ve been dreaming.
Leonard looks good on the PP.
Tom Wilson absolutely is The Man.

That bumped Caps ahead of NJ moved us into 2nd place in division and 3rd overall in the East

Standings mean nothing at this point. With 1/3 of the regular season down, the Metro Division is extraordinarily tight - no one is out of anything at the moment.
