boy!, doggone! that was some really great analysis!

it wasn't meant so much as "analysis" - more like "audition"

would be a great story: "redbull to replace Butchie"

I'd have all HF posters appear as guests on the show for honest, hard core, opinions and analysis.

Uh oh. Gunning for Butchie's job?

I think redbull = Mike Milbury

Yeah I was certainly on the "Poulin has earned a second straight start" bandwagon....But in my defense, I had no idea Nabby had a 12-1-3 Alltime record against the Caps.

At least Cappy has a legit reason for starting Nabby, he's dominated the Caps. Whatever....Lets Roll!!!

Go Isles!

Agreed, if a goalie has success against certain teams, why not roll with it. Also, I was worried about Poulin getting buried by the Capitals and his confidence being crushed. Let Poulin play the next game.

if you got laid the last time you wore soiled underwear, would you continue to crap your pants every friday night?

So Nabakov won 12 games and lost 1 against the Capitals.

To answer your question (and use your terrible analogy), if I **** myself 12 times and got laid each time but once.... sure why not?!

 

[SI90]

Ovi really should take another game, can never be to cautious..

 

[SpeedDemon]

Caps win 4-2. sadly

 

[A Pointed Stick]

And a 5 min major to furter boost his fantasy stats

If it is for locking Capuano in a locker and taking over coaching duties I would be strangly comfortable with the penalty.

 

[bluechipbonzo]

5-2 Isles.

Hammer
JT
Bailey
Clutter
Hickey

 

[Axe Man]

Nice GDT! This is a pretty big game against a decent team. Maybe the top line can put on a show for us tonight. Sadly, I have more confidence in the Isles beating the Caps then I do beating the Flyers.

Nabby will probably play against Columbus as well on the trip, given how well he played against them in the home opener. Poulin likely against Carolina. That leaves Montreal open for discussion on who plays goal Sunday. I'd give it to Poulin, see what he can do in his native province.

It all depends on how Poulin does against Carolina. He's a backup, he needs to prove himself every start he gets to earn more playing time.

Just on a personal note, I hope Poulin gets the start in Montreal. Would probably be a big thrill for him and I'm sure it'll cost his wallet for all the tickets he'll need for family and friends.

Ovi is one of those players that I hate playing against. But he does that to everyone. Hope JT gets a couple tonight. I feel he always plays good vs the caps.

 

[WangMustGo]

I know its extremely early, but it would be nice to start opening a gap between us and the rest of the division. We seem to play to the level of opponents thus far, hopefully these past couple games push us past that, I am expecting 6 points out of this road trip.

 

[Skip To My Lou]

Is this the Capitals pregame show or something? So much Caps coverage from Peter.

 

[StumpNYI]

Forgot Grabovski is on the caps now. Never comfortable when he plays us for some reason.

 

[Jester9881]

Holy commercials batman.... when are they dropping this thing?

 

[BillD]

Somebody left the gate oooooopen.

Lets Go Islanders

 

[Space Herpe]

How many face lifts has Oates had?

 

[BTrotts19]

This inability to win a faceoff is gonna kill us

 

[PWJunior]

Need to take advantage of this PP. Thankfully, it look like it only grazed JT's face.

 

[Bones45]

I got a Troy Brouwer bobble head upon entry. Who the **** is that? Isn't that the guy from Stand By Me who got killed by the train?

 

[PWJunior]

JT scores!!!

 

[BTrotts19]

Johnny boy

 

[xECK29x]

Tavares!! Amazing PP!!
