I saw yesterday they sent Shep back.

I saw yesterday they sent Hāman-Aktell back, never saw anything about Shep.

[Mickstix]

I have better sources I guess. 

[Mickstix]

Oh good. Both teams on "streaks".. CBus 7 game losing, Caps 3 game winning.

For the 1st, Columbus was %100 at the PP faceoff, but overall the Caps have won %57

[Mickstix]

Sounds right.


Decent period otherwise. Fairly close game. Ovi's had 2 good chances, 1 post.


Oshie.. Bro, it's time to produce something good here. 


Oh yea, evenin' Lil. 

[Mickstix]

Jeebus.. Man up and one of them w/o a stick. We stay spread out against the walls.
