Don't understand how Samsonov can even be on the Covid list.  He had Covid back in January, then he can't have it now (and now come the "scientists"....)


Is Caps management just stalling on them for punishment?  We don't win in the playoffs without the real Kuzy (or is it the fake Kuzy?...the one that actually plays hard)

[Mickstix]

Gotta wonder if there's any actual reporters in town that cover the Caps? (Samantha Pell, Stephen Whyno, Brian McNally, Tarik El-Bashir, etc.)  They should be asking at EVERY press conference, what's the deal with those 2.. Seems there has to be more to the story than just "remain absent".

as I've noted before, what I've learned while doing the GDTs full time is how pathetic sports reporting is in this town if it doesn't involve the redskins, even though the Caps and Nats have both won the championship in very recent years

Caps will play every other day for round 1, which is how it should be

https://novacapsfans.com/2021/05/13/nhl-announces-first-round-schedule-scenarios-based-on-result-of-thursdays-kings-avalanche-game/

if the Avalanche beat the Kings tonight they will have 1st in the west over Vegas

Vancouver could still be finishing the regular season as we get round 1 winners


on Wednesday the Jets and Oilers will play game 1 of round 1 as the Caps are playing game 3,
looks like that series is backed up because of Vancouver

Game 1 is on regular NBC nationally so I assume I get to watch it...unless they black it out locally, because its on NBCSW 


might have to break out the honey sippin for that one....been a while since I got to do that.

I think main NBC is gonna be the only gig..  Hopefully it's the local boys doin the play by play though!
I may have a drink or two for that one myself!

Two?   Just two??!  Come on Micks, we aint 80 😁

Nah, that's just -before- the game starts! 

[Mickstix]

So it's day 11 and Kuzy and Sammy are STILL on the Covid list.. Rumor being they BOTH got covid again!?!?       No clue what's up with those 2, but I don't believe for a second they BOTH caught covid TWICE in the span of 2-3 months.. The lack of transparency within the NHL for shit like this is stupid. It's not a hand/leg injury someone is gonna try to exploit..

I just got home from some light shopping, I got 3.5 liters of whiskey, hopefully that will last through the weekend

Kempney and Oshie skated this morning before the optional practice. I'm surprised Kempney did, I got the impression he was twisted up a bit more from that shovel...

So I introduced my wife to the Honey a while back and she really liked it.  Apparently more than I know....I went to have some last night and....
There's about an inch of whiskey left in the bottle.  She been sipping my sauce while I been out working.


Damn - going to have to hit the alphabet store tomorrow.

mebe you should get serious about fixing the home wifi instead of staying at work until the hockey game ends

Since the wife likes the Honey, you better not introduce her to Jack and Sprite.




Or Jack and OJ, non pulp


She won't like that at all

I don’t know what time this was posted yesterday, but it was after puck drop...

these articles should have a time stamp on them, but I can’t see it with iOS

Kuzy and Sammy skated this morning before team practice, Sammy is off the wuhan list but Kuzy is still on it

Vtec is being listed as day to day, and goalie Zach Fucale was recalled from Hershey, I assume for the required 3rd goalie on the taxi squad
