Caps have fallen to 4th in the Metro, same points as the Hens but they have to tie breaker

[richkrt99]

Hathy on the top line with Kuzy and Ovie...must need some finesse and scoring touch on that line

[Surreylily]

Morning all.   
Any update on Oshie

[Mickstix]

Morning all.   
Any update on Oshie

He's still old and can't raise his arms w/o hurting himself. 

[Mickstix]

    There's that outstanding PK again!!

[alta]

other than that.. no, no update

[Mickstix]

See if you can get Ovi a goal and call it a night.. 

[Surreylily]

Early suckiness.
Not a good start.

[Mickstix]

    again! 

[Surreylily]

See if you can get Ovi a goal and call it a night.. 

Works for me..........

[alta]

this team needs a new goalie coach, to start with

[alta]

See if you can get Ovi a goal and call it a night.. 

that means she’s gotta show us her puppies

[Surreylily]

Oooooh!   Nice hit, on the way to the bench. 

CRUNCH 

[Surreylily]

Oh joy.  A PP.

[Mickstix]

Another great PP!! 2 faceoffs, 2 lost.. Wasted 40 seconds of it in the process! 

[Surreylily]

We're not looking great.

[Mickstix]

So, when the losing streak hits around 7 games, we start talking about a coaching change, correct?
