[Alicat]

Not a pretty GDT as I got up late and have some stuff to do.

Your regular, spiffy GDT will return on Monday..

For a few giggles here's Caps new Head Coach Barry Trotz after their SO loss to Montreal last night..

While i'm super pumped about the new tv deal, watching a hockey game on FX seems...bizarre.

I'm all for it though.

Dave shea? I remember when he was pbp on fox when i was a kid lol.
'hisss shot!'

 

[Minny Shinny]

Hmmm. Caps gotta get that background sitch figured out.

Um...I haven't decided if I'm going to this game yet. As frustrating as it seems to have been playing against the Caps the last few years with a healthy center corps, putting this current unit on the ice whilst braving the new pitfalls of the Garden like Harry Pitfall doesn't quite have the allure of staying home on the couch and watching with a plateful of teriyaki wings.

We needed some of this last night.

Stop Ovechkin, you stop this team. We should score a lot... well, aside from the fact that their average goalie looks like Hasek against us.

 

[TCL40]

Do the Caps still have Holtby? We're getting shutout then.

For whatever reason every other team in the league can light him up like a Christmas tree but we can't score on him for anything.

Ovie has been moved back to the left side-not sure if Dougie can stop him but I figure the team will put Chara or Bergy in his face as much as possible.

Seids really has fun matched against Ovie so maybe we see Bart in again with Seids on the right side. Don't think Seids has all his rust off yet.

 

[Central Scrutinizer]

Caps looked really good vs the Habs(despite losing in a SO) Orpik ond Ovi were hitting everything in site.

It will be a tough one.

 

[Hali33]

R.I.P. Penalty kill.

 

[VanIsle]

Time to panik

2 games in and the world is falling to pieces.

Hopefully the Bruins can put in a great effort and this is the last game that Krejci misses.

Agreed.
Broons better find their legs for this one.

 

[Danton Heineken]

Barry Trotz's neck.

 

[qc]

His head is round, like snowman.

 

[Paddington]

Holtby always seems to play like a superstar against the Bruins. Also, I'm assuming he played well vs the Habs if he only gave up 1 goal. If Trotz can finally do the unthinkable and implement a proper defencive scheme in Washington, we may be in store for third straight 2-1 game.

 

[RaskIsABrickWall]

just stop ovi please

[A Healthy Kelly*]

this one might get ugly imo. could serve as a wake-up call if so however

of course, hoping for a spirited effort and for fraser to maybe wear thinner socks

 

[RedeyeRocketeer]

Just win!

Holtby does well against the B's. He is a decent young net minder.

I hope the boys start working out some of the kinks.

HERE WE GO BRUINS...HERE WE GO

just stop ovi please

May this is the year Ovi will learn to be a 2 way player !

He now does the readings at our church on Sunday when not selling insurance or cars.

That`ll happen if Christmas gets moved to the 23rd of December

Ovi`s been around a long time now, if he can`t see the value of familiarizing himself with the defensive zone from time to time by now, I suspect it`ll never happen

Good Morning Andrew

I guess Ovi wouldn't do well on the B's.

Morning to you as well, hope your doing wonderfully. I suspect the 7 hairs left on Claude`s head would disappear before pre-season game #1 if Ovi were a Bruin

Go B`s

 

[ODAAT]

Caps are fast, I`ll get lambasted for it but I`d put Bart in for either Quaider or Miller tonight for added mobility

This game has the making of an ugly night in Boston if we play like we did vs the Wings.

I hope I'm wrong
