Post-Game Talk: Bolts @ Caps, 8PM

[Empty Goal Net]

I'm not 100% sure, but my guess is that they do not want to set that precedent, for themselves and the league.

In fact (or am I mistaken in my dotardary?), doesn't the NHL prohibit teams from doing this? Thought I had seen it somewhere, but maybe it's MLB.

Yep, and they backpedaled faster than a purse wearing, table throwing, flying chair deflecting, angry angry.... person.

I personally think it was the other news of the day.... if you want specifics, just google news Qatari. Story is now about 20 hours old.

You cant be serious. You would trade Ov and Stammer? Assuming this was a joke

100% sarcasm

I f***ing hate that nationalist bullshit

They may. They almost definitely must agree. And let's be honest, the NHL wouldn't pay the Lerner's rental fee to have an alumni game at Nats Park. They aren't going to start shelling out money to "guarantee" public transportation.

Shoot, hit, go to the net, and most of all don't take stupid penalties. Do all of this and Caps win. Play a good playoff game at home that matters for a change.

Go Caps!

 

[bur and 666 others]

Win at home and close out on the road!

R2G5. There's a precedent.

I had a bad feeling going into last game, tonight I don’t. Expect a bounceback game

Funny, felt and feel the same way.

Interesting analysis of the series here:

Site seems really slow today. I figured Varana got scratched.

That's the walk of a man who is playing tonight.

 

[Blitzkrieg365]

Didn't watch game 1 or 2, they win. Tuned in game 3 and it was a dumpster fire. Suffice to say I think I am bad luck and won't be tuning in tonight. Lets go Caps!

 

[shelco]

If Nicky is back watch the hacking and slashing to the hands. You know they will target him. Hopefully the refs are watching out

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

I’m hearing it’s likely he’s in....

 

[Portable Mink]

Would really really love to have my fears dispelled today.
I think we dropped down intensity a couple percent last game and thats enough.

Stay out of the box. Seriously. You need to be switched on every moment and you limit this. Its a mental thing.
I want to see them play pissed off again. Thats how we win. Thats how we beat the clovers and thats how we wont game 1 & 2.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

It's been good luck staying away from the boards but I'm posting on social and texting friends to much. So you all have to deal with me tonight.

Let's win this

[hockeykicker]

chiasson out

 

[Brian23]

And he made the right lines!

If they don't win this game I dunno what they can do. This is the best team we can ice right now.

 

[Misery74]

So who is out?
