Post-Game Talk: Cups @ Kansas City Scouts, 7:37 (not the plane)

[895]

Really need these two points to not face Pittsburgh in Round 1.

Hope Ovechkin scores No. 50 on the Devils to make up for last year.

I would love to get the Pens in round 1, or round 2 really.

In to an empty net.

Ovi hatty tonight. He's rested and we know how much rest matters

 

[Melkor]

At this point I'm convinced Stephenson is paying Reirden to stay in the lineup. No other explanations really.

[kicksavedave]

Whoa, Djoos in for Orpik? Fascinating!

Maybe just maintenance rest for the old man. But good to see they feel Djoos is healthy enough to play again. This will be the most mobile Caps D in ages. And maybe the least physical?

Saving him and Holts for tomorrow. A bit worried the team will be thinking too much about Weds to get 2pts from this one.

If it were me, I bring up DSP for tomorrow's game and sit Stevie Wonder.

 

[895]

The Djoos is finally loose!

I'm guessing it's because he's part of the "cup-winning team" so there's some loyalty there. Otherwise I have no clue.

And the leading scorer of the Kansas City Scouts in their second and final season was . . . . future Cap Guy Charron

My guess is that they want Orpik fresh for Tampa Bay. Just a guess.

By that logic Dsp should have still been in DC and f***ing that whole 4th line up. I'm really trying hard to see anything that 18 brings to the table for this team. He legit is a useless waste of a spot.

Whoever it was that called him "irrelevant" was dead on. At least DSP hits like a truck and blocks shots.



.....and Chan will score today probably.

you are correct.(says I)

 

[txpd]

The more they mess around with Stephenson and Boyd the clearer it is to me that DSP goes right in when he can be called up at the end of the regular season.

Probably. I'd appreciate a good puck support and possession from him more than a goal though.

Really interested to see how it works out - basically a preview of next year. Hoping to see us able to skate out our own zone and transition well.

 

[Raikkonen]

Why did they insert 18 for Dowd? Maybe latter was dinged. Why do they scratch 72? Easy question. Isnt doing much lately.

Now they can unleash Hags, Dowd and Chan on PK and then have fresh 6 guys for next 2 shifts (one of Eller/Backstrom gets less PK load). Maybe less Oshie on PK. Thats something at least.

Im fine with Boyd sitting while all centers are healthy.

On the other hand, prospects of DSP coming back hungry are tempting.

Bring on the Pens! We against them in 1st round is ideal I think.

 

[RandyHolt]

I want to get the max out of Max 8

Am I too young or too British to get this? (Maybe both?)

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

This has trap game written allllll over it.

 

[ovikovy817]

Hope they put Schneider in net

NAILED IT

There was a show in the 1980's called Fantasy Island, and this guy used to yell, da plane da plane. It circles back to OP talking about the Boeing 737 Max 8, our grounded plane. Grounded because it nose dives yet no one thought it would be wise to alert pilots of a new software program they installed called MCAS, to help prevent stalls when climbing. Which apparently happens when planes take off. So as pilots took off, if only one AOA sensor got a bad reading, it would put the shiny new plane into a dive. No redundancy on that sensor...

When in a dive, it takes ~50KG of force to pull back the stick. Which is roughly both pilots feet on the dash board pulling back with all their strength. All the while as they are mere thousands of feet above ground, expected to be following a troubleshooting guide.

Which again, made no mention of MCAS.

Hope they put Schneider in net

Not me, he's been great over his last few starts.
