Dear Red Wangs...Costanza Caps need a little help:

They need to pepper him if he starts. No excuse for low shots like the recent trend. Hoping for Ovy nets number 30 tonight.

As @AlexBrovechkin8 said, a win gives us a chance. A loss guarantees elimination.

No pressure!

Pressure is the best!

 

[zappa4ever]

Just win.
(and an OV goal or 6)
(and a NYI L v NYR)
(and a PHI L at MTL)

(and make the W in Reg)

Ovi scores his 30th goal with the GWG 3-2 goal then adds the 31st on an ENG.

Miro is out tonight. What many of us have been saying… needs a break and watch a bit. Not getting sent down but getting a chance to watch from above. Love Miro but also love this move.

Boo this man.

I want to see Ovie and the Hershey kids in the NHL playoffs.

And you think the Hershey kids give a F about a minor league championship anymore? Been there done that.


We got the GOAT baby.

But yeah, not a lot.

Ask Protas if he gave a F about it last year when he went down after we missed the playoffs. He's spoken nothing but great things about it and celebrated it as hard as anyone...(except maybe wasted Mikey stumbling up and down the isles at the Giant Center). This Caps team is a dying cow, a playoff sweep is worthless for the kiddos. A long run through the AHL playoffs is the foundation for a long and bright NHL future. Did wonders for Protas, Mikey, Lappy, Malenstyn.

Red Wings also have a game against the Penguins left. Would be so Caps/Pens if we lose tonight and Pens wins against Detroit in few days and advance to the PO.

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

Hopefully the wings put us out of our misery.

 

[DWGie26]

I’m not ready to die yet. Hit me with the defibrillators one more time Caps.

Will be in the basement with a bourbon and pen.

 

[Praetorian Caps]

Ovi needs a hat trick

 

[BerthMania]

Very important game for both team tonight. I'm a Habs fan, I was looking at the Capitals line up and god damn thats ugly. It think it's worst then the Habs on paper. What explains the fact they are still in the playoff race, considering their horrible team on paper Caps fans?

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Who gives a shit, ovi goals and defeat so we can watch Hershey fully loaded for the playoffs.

F
That
Noise

Starting to feel like you’re a bigger Hershey fan than a Caps fan….just sayin…

….but sorry man, rooting against our team is shitty. To each their own.

#1: Drive the points

#2: Let the sticks do the work

#3: "Why aren't I 50 points ahead?

Anyone rooting for the Caps to lose this game is quite simply not a Caps fan.

 

[hockeykicker]

nhl says okay big game, you get the two most experienced refs

 

[Misery74]

Going to the garage to smoke a joint. Can’t take it.

Parlayed Wings ML + Ovi Goal

We would be in if we beat the Habs earlier along with other teams like Arizona. Torture is a slow process with this NHL.

Sitting in an Airbnb in MTL. Decided not to try to snag tix for Flyers-MTL tonight and instead listening to Walton on the radio like olden times. Wish this team would either win a few and get in or tank out of the hunt.

Tampa and Boston might sit out some guys hopefully.

Here we go!
