there should be rules about back to backs, mainly there shouldn't be any.

Or both teams must have played the night before AND maybe also both had to travel.

I'll be interested in seeing if our guys can muster the same high intensity and speed they had last night.

Should we throw in some politics before the game?

I think I posted (well I know I did...)
Caps playing back to back and in game 4 of the season.  Devils off for four days and have played total of one game.


I get that scheduling involves venues, travel, etc, etc, but to START the season, you would think it wouldn't be quite this inequitable.  At a minimum, I can't see why the CAPS didn't play Tuesday and then rest Wednesday and then play tonight?


Not to mention....both back to backs the Caps have had to travel TO a destination with a rested team waiting to play in their own barn.




Anyway, GO CAPS.


Maybe I get home in time to partake in a thread during an actual game...

No, I think it turns people off from participating

[alta]

and why is one team the victim of 2 other teams home opener?

Today is my birthday, would like nothing more than to celebrate it with a Caps victory tonight.  I am a little nervous though with Copely in net.  Not sure what to expect.

COPLEY . . .  WOW!

[ArJunaZ]

forget the push of the pad, he kicked the fucking puck in.

HAPPY B-DAY!     
Morning all.

[ArJunaZ]

How the hell was that a valid goal. He used his skate with a very intentional kicking motion toward the goal. It doesn't matter what happened after that.

[ArJunaZ]

I can sense Tom Wilson fuming that he couldn't be on the ice to end that brawl or retaliate shortly afterwards.
 

[DC_1908]

. . . that was pathetic,  and embarrassing


This weakness is going to continue to be exploited, and will result in more Caps leaving the ice bleeding

[alta]

If Willy was on the bench that Wood guy would be picking up his teeth off the ice later

[justwincaps]

Wood had the good sense not to actually throw a punch at Ovie.   

Sit Jaskin and give me Liam O’Brien. 

[DC_1908]

maybe we can trade Jaskins or Dowd for him. . .hes more muscle than we have now
