We need this one with Boston waiting on saturday.
Boston is a loss, don't even bother playing. I'd be utterly shocked if we pulled off a win or even kept the score reasonable.
Well said.That is kind of how I feel about the Boston game (pre-pre game day thread). But then I recall we have a new coach and a new focus on defense and think...well maybe it won't be a blowout at least lol.
As for the Caps game, well we should be able to win, history says we likely won't but again a new coach and system. Joey Crabb - yup he will likely be very motivated to score in this game.

Attaboy. Let's fax in the paperwork to the NHL head office to officially forfeit.
I know Gards is down there, I put him in brackets to insinuate he should be there haha.
Here's their lines last game:
Us:
Ovechkin-Beagle-Crabb
Wolski-Backstrom-Brouwer
Chimera-Ribeiro-Ward
Hendricks-Perreault-Fehr
Alzner-Green
Erskine-Carlson
Schultz-Kundratek
Neuvirth (starter)
Holtby
Just ****ing win. Go Leafs Go!

Ovechkin's 42 points in 27 games vs. the Leafs are his most against a Northeast Division team. Held pointless just five times vs. Toronto.
The way the Caps have been playing, this might be his sixth time.
This is a must win...this team needs to learn to put away teams that are already down.
We did it against Buffalo, now it's time to do it against Washington.

Damn Ovy playing with 2 fourth liners and Backstrom with 2 third liners.
Haha me too, I remember seeing you during the intermission last time.
Any chance of that again?
Dreger reports that Hamilton's been recalled.
4th line?
Could be. Mike Brown has a shoulder injury right?
