GDT: 53 | Washington Capitals @ Pittsburgh Penguins | 7PM EST | Yay Reaves is back... :(

[Speaking Moistly]

That's just a truth nobody can accept. Hockey cannot be policed anymore. If a skilled player like oshie does something like that, the only thing Reaves can do is fight a worthless player OR take a 5 minute penalty trying to injure their star.

Well, it could be policed. They don’t and that’s a choice people are making. Take 20 games, take draft picks, take cap space, take roster space. They’ll learn.

Hornqvist?

Nah. Horny is a pest. He's not a rat. It may be a subtle difference at times, but it's a difference.

 

[Tom Hanks]

Caps board is worth the read... It’s ****in incredible

They are the worst

Don't worry, they got another 2nd round exit to talk about.

 

[Nadal On Clay]

They are the worst

Them and Boston are probably at the top...

 

[Ugene Magic]

Nah. Horny is a pest. He's not a rat. It may be a subtle difference at times, but it's a difference.

He's like them but he does it legally. Hockey play.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

I get annoyed that any time Sheahan makes any sort of play that isn't viewed favorable (was going to say "bad play", but it doesn't have to be a bad play for this), people start complaining about him. It's just annoying at this point.

That one play, it looked like he was being told to get off so Crosby could come on.

 

[KIRK]

One thing not being focused on enough: The Pens transition defense is really struggling to pick up the Caps 3rd and 4th guys coming through the neutral zone.

 

[Andy99]

I just really hope if we don't get to the playoffs or win the Cup that the Caps flame out in the worst way possible. I'm putting a hex, voodoo curse AND a black magic spell over their whole dirty, *****y team...

Please don't bring any of that to our board. Also, they're not keen on folks posting in their threads who aren't part of the fanbase ... enter at your own risk.

Reaves and Oleksiak vs Oshie and Wilson

Who wins? Easily Reaves/Oleksiak.

Drop the gloves boys!
edit: I’d rather just see clean, entertains hockey, though. Hockey has evolved.

Do not bring other board comments or discussion in here.

What's Steve Downie up to these days?

 

[The GM]

He's like them but he does it legally. Hockey play.

Like niskanen?

 

[The GM]

What's Steve Downie up to these days?

I’d rather bring back billy Tibbets

 

[Tom Hanks]

Wrong Steve, you mean MacIntyre

 

[FreeBobbyFarnham]

I’d rather bring back billy Tibbets

He's quiet the player in the FHL

The Caps will flame out this year for the same reason they flame out every year. Not a hex. Not voodoo. Not black magic. Just the divine will of the hockey gods.

 

[66-30-33]

f*** bringing up tough guys, just win the hockey game please. Speed and skill is what beats the Caps, keep adding speed+skill.

 

[Common Sense]

Also, great decision putting Rowney back in the lineup when he's so horrible that we have to double shift Sid all game on a back to back.

 

[vodeni]

last couple years if you had told me Murray let 3 goals in and we still have chance I would feel pretty good about chances, could not believe that he can let more than 3, this time , eh....

 

[Ugene Magic]

Like niskanen?

Um... What Nisky did wasn't legal.

 

[Tom Hanks]

That wouldn’t have changed with Dea

How is that different than Dea?

 

[HuskerTornado]

Man, look how much Reaves' presence keeps the other teams in check from trying to hurt the Pens' star player. What a pick-up he was. What a legend.

Gotta admit, I feel safer sitting on the couch here.
