Guess they plan on taking a bunch of penalties?  Eller should be the one scratched, if they're gonna play Mantha, imo.. Whatever, lets hope at least 1 or 2 lines look competent tonight!

I think it’s safe to say this is a must win game. Caps need the points.

[Mickstix]

I dunno about must win, but must look better for sure. 3rd game since the "blender" effect. Need to start looking like a hockey team again, asap!

On my way into town for the game. Hoping for a charged team up for a big Saturday night vs Filthy
Go Caps

[Mickstix]

Have fun and don't waste too much money at the game! Stop at the 7-11 for a hotdog and get drunk before ya get there! 


I went to a UCF football game a few weeks ago and luckily we tailgated on chicken tenders and jack daniels.. Fuckers still got me for (2) 20$ mixed drinks inside the stadium. Oh and a $15 beer..  Fuckers.

Looks like the whole "ROCK THE RED" era is officially over.

the pp looks limp

[Mickstix]

Yep, they still look clumsy as ever.  Should scratch Kusnetsov if they're gonna start scratching top liners. Dude gives the puck away so easily it's sad.

an obvious no call at one end gets a bullshit call against the Caps

the jackass zebras score


 

[Mickstix]

Are you allowed to just shoot the puck like that on the PP?  Thought you needed at least 4 passes before you could try that.

Somone called the refs mom a ho? 

[Surreylily]

Well that didn't take long.

St Laurent is one of the refs.
