[oldgoalie]

Karma f***ers. 3-0

 

[joshjull]

Yes!!!!

 

[Sabreality]

well there goes my Burakovsky idea

 

[Chainshot]

well there goes my Burakovsky idea

I was just thinking that. Seems unlikely they deal him after Game 7 heroics. Or at least not for anything easily affordable.

[oldgoalie]

They’re hiring geometry teachers for officials these days?

Washington is finally going to make the SCF... and they're going to be the underdogs to the f***ing Vegas Golden Knights.

Reality blurs just a little more with each passing day.

Pretty glad I sold my two tickets for $600... 10 minutes before puck drop.... this is way less depressing with a scotch in my hands, sitting in yeomans, with an extra $300 in my pocket.

McPhee vs. the Caps? Fun storyline.

 

[Chainshot]

Memorial Cup game is about to start. Winner advances, but whoever wins also influences who gets the bye.

 

[ZZamboni]

Washington is rolling. Wow.

I wasn’t expecting this.

I was thinking a very careful game, low score like 2-1 or something.

Stamkos is non existent. Where has he been?

 

[Jame]

Burakovsky is the player Erod could be for us

 

[debaser66]

dirty boys getting a power play

 

[oldgoalie]

Ah f***. Don’t let them get back into this game. Come on.

Him and Kucherov have been AWOL -- the Kooch feed to Killorn is about the only thing I 've seen him do all night.

Nonetheless... you have my sympathies. But glad you made some money on the deal.

Ovi finally getting past the other 29 teams is a great story.

There still, hilariously, being 1 brand new team left to beat is an even better one.

Agree. The suck factor in all of this is overwhelming. Washington really deserves everyone's admiration given their flame out legacy. Instead, all we are going hear repeatedly from the announcers on the telecasts is cheerleading for Vegas.

Betting the Vegas drum corp lets Roenick participate again too.... uh where's your Cup Jeremy?

If they want to keep Carlson, they're going to have to shift money around and lose some contracts. Burakovsky is probably one of the more replaceable players they have that would actually make a dent in their cap, assuming that they don't have buyers for Orpik or Orlov.

 

[Chainshot]

Remember 5-6 years ago when we would toss around how much the Caps needed a goalie and Caps fans said they were good and had this kid coming up who could be good enough? Seems Holtby's been more than just good enough again.
