gruby should be in net

Great chance to really make this an uphill climb for CBJ and PIT. We're playing the dead-last team with nothing to gain, and their next games are against a highly determined CAR team (on the road) and a very good CHI team, respectively.

If it's 110, 105, 103 with six games to go, I'm going to start feeling pretty decent.

Backstrom tied for 2nd in the league. What a year he's having. With a game in hand he could take sole possession of the 2nd spot. Man o man is the top line and ovi beating up at the right time

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

3-1 Good guys.

 

[Caps Circle]

OV reaches 50, Caps win 27-1

 

[peterthegreat12]

Avs win 6 - 1.

I wish we were tanking. We're simply this bad.

Hey, that just means you're tanking from the top down.

 

[txpd]

I am embarrassed to admit this, but this game does make me wonder if we cant get another hat trick for Ov and another 3 assist game for Backstrom?

That said, we need a goal from Burakovsky, Beagle or Wilson, Shattenkirk and a couple points from Kuzy one way or another.

 

[Zynbanejad]

Grub confirmed yet?

 

[Midnight Judges]

Grub confirmed yet?

Sure why not.

 

[Midnight Judges]

I predict the zzzs will win.

 

[GoCaps2004]

7-0 Avs. Shattenkirk minus-7

At least you have one of the coolest jersey/logo in the league

Main board would explode if Backstrom somehow find a way to beat McDavid in scoring race, so I can only dream about another 3-4 points night, a couple of goals for Ovie and no injuries. Which probably means 2-1 Avalanche OT

Damn, that's cold. They're already having the worst season ever so I don't think they need any sarcasm to go along with that.

Well I admit that my post was made to be read like a sarcastic one, but I really like their jersey and logo. And it's dating from the 90's when they were rivals of the Detroit Russians.

This awful season of theirs can be a blessing in disguise. They can come back next season with a new team, new NAME and new jerseys. Just start over! Maybe even bring back the old mascot; this new one is too cute. Hockey teams are not supposed to be cute.

Caps mission should be padding backstroms stats.

Has he ever had a 5p game?

 

[Carlzner]

Wearing my 19 jersey to the game tonight to support the Backstrom for Hart campaign.

Yep. Against Penguins this season (2G+3A) and 5 times overall which is second best result in NHL since 2007/08. Only Geno is ahead with six 5-point games. Nicklas Backstrom is pretty good at hockey

 

[GreatEight]

Should see Grubauer in net either tonight or against Arizona. Would definitely like Holtby to get some rest before the Columbus game.

 

[txpd]

One for RH, "Ok, who's the U-Boat commander?"

OV reaches 50, Caps win 27-1

Idk why this made me laugh so hard but it did. Out of curiosity, who gets the 1 for the Avs? Or is that Ovie wheeling back into our zone on a delayed penalty, losing control of the puck, and having it go into our own net?
