Chychrun is being ruled a game time decision.

[Mickstix]

Guess they're banking that no forwards stub a toe between now and game time? Very odd that Milano's injured and they sent Scarb back to Hershey? 

[alta]

It was an odd move. If they haven’t recalled anyone today I expect it tomorrow for the game in St Louis.

Meh, they could play with 3 forward lines if had to...they do about 90% of the time anyway.
                                                    (note the comma)
So the game broadcast says ESPN+, Hulu.  That to me says its on both.  Or could just be my wishful thinking.  I sure hope so....cuz that would mean I can watch it, and that my sons girlfriend has finally brought something of value to my household 

Hens give up shit ton of goals this year.  Hope we stomp them but good

[richkrt99]

My son bet a parlay on Caps the other night.  Ovie to score, Strome with a point, and Ovie gets 3 shots.....won $150 on a $10 bet


Now he's betting on tonight - Ovie to score goal, Crybaby to score goal, and Both to have 4 shots on goal .  Yeah good luck buddy.


And another thing... How come you spell full with two L's, but Wishful and thankful only have one?
(yes, i am bored)

NHL and Caps dot com say it’s both, through the use of the comma.


Caps play tonight and tomorrow night. I’m sure they’d rather not put that much time on the the top three lines tonight. Otherwise it probably wouldn’t matter.








and that’s some pretty slick work with the space bar

Hard to believe this is 20 years between the Goat and Crosby. Looking forward to a great game and having 6 goals between the two, with Crosby getting 2 to get to a simple 600 and OV with 4 more!

[Mickstix]

Hmm, should I bust bubbles now, or wait till game time.. 
 
                                                                                                                                                     
Im afraid they misused the comma. HULU "basic" only carries ESPN and the games on ESPN +

Morning   

[Mickstix]

Evenin' Lil!


TF time they actually gonna drop the puck??    Looks like another 50 yr anniversary celebration?

I don’t expect another dualing hat trick anytime soon

[Mickstix]

 


PP looks good, still no dirt. 

[alta]

great tv coverage so far

[Surreylily]

[Mickstix]

[Mickstix]
