GDT: Capitals at Blackhawks Oct 1, 2013 8:00 PM ET

[Liberati0n*]

The banner is hideous tho.

I agree. It has nothing on the banner the Capitals can hang after winning the division this year:

 

[Calicaps]

Warm up and then 45 minutes sitting on the bench watching; now Ovechkin knows how DJ King felt.

 

[Fitlanbox]

This is why I like baseball....if a game starts at 7:05, the first pitch is being thrown at 7:05. I mean I don't want to begrudge the champs this ceremony, but they should have started this at 7:30.

 

[butters8814*]

start the freaking game already

 

[Ovechtrick89*]

Something tells me Ovi is gonna skate out going nuts with a sombrero on to the hawaii five-0 theme when we have our presentation. Oh and yes i did say WHEN.

That's so wrong.

 

[Fallschirmyager]

I got say if I weren't a die hard hockey fan I'd have given up on this boring ass display. congrats to the Hawks for another cup but I agree this should have been done prior to coverage picking up.

 

[NobodyBeatsTheWiz]

That anthem was horrible.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Jim Cornelson singing the national anthem. Really like his singing. Impressive.

Did you see the huge SC ring on his hand?

 

[Hivemind]

Am I the only one who didn't bother to watch the banner raising?

 

[Liberati0n*]

I wish the government shutdown discontinued the national anthem at sports games. Just one more boring ceremony to sit through.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Hawks should be ripe for a beating tonight if the Caps can weather the first 20.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

I wish the government shutdown discontinued the national anthem at sports games. Just one more boring ceremony to sit through.

You could always GTFO and move to Cuba.

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

Holy **** that was brutal. Let's play hockey.

 

[Dream Big]

Now a ton of commercials. We'll be lucky to start the game by 5:45

 

[PuckBuddy]

Man, that dumb song always ends the same way. Someday I want the flag to be gone and replaced with underpants or something.

 

[SimplySensational]

Now here's to Ovechkin getting the 4th goal of the new season.

 

[brs03]

Am I the only one who didn't bother to watch the banner raising?

Nope. Habs-Leafs was back and the baseball game started too.

 

[Dream Big]

That anthem was horrible.

He sang it better on Saturday.

 

[NobodyBeatsTheWiz]

He sang it better on Saturday.

Wouldn't take much.

 

[Dream Big]

O gawd. It's Pierre.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

I wish the government shutdown discontinued the national anthem at sports games. Just one more boring ceremony to sit through.

Oh man don't say that. Reminds me that this Saturday's Air Force vs Navy game is going to be canceled unless Air Force digs up some private money to pay for air fair and lodging.

 

[Fallschirmyager]

You could always GTFO and move to Cuba.

To the contrary. I wore a uniform for 10 years so he could have the right to be wrong.

 

[Liberati0n*]

You could always GTFO and move to Cuba.

Good idea. I'm sure they don't have nearly as many pointless nationalistic ceremonies.

 

[Dream Big]

Wouldn't take much.

Ha ha, Since I don't sing I admire anyone who can. You? Sing that is?
