Washington isn't the team it once was. Hopefully we can take advantage and pick up the W. GFG.

Caps will try to reflect on their season opener loss. Going with a draw, let's see who will get hungrier in the OT/SO

 

[Bounces R Way]

Veteran team that got blown out by a hated rival in their home opener
I could see this going poorly. Very poorly even.

also:

that isn't very good.

I hope to god we're ready to go.

 

[Rubi]

Same lines and pairings as the Pens game.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

that isn't very good.

Thankfully, I see who's ranked worse and have hope for tonight, at least.

This could be a fun one to play the goalscorer prop dart throwing game. I got lucky and hit 2/2 in the Sens game last night with Tarasenko at +285 and Jeannot at +480.

Today we'll go with an assortment of long shots for $15-20 each.
Phillips +550
Ruzicka +530
Mantha +520
Duehr +500
Milano +480
Sharangovich +470
Dube +325

I've weighted it so if any hits I'm at least even or up a touch and hitting 2 or more means we're swimming in profit.
Ex-Flames always burn us so one of Milano and Phillips are a virtual lock and Mantha's odds seem way out of whack. I also like the odds for the Flames I chose.

Of course you can always take Ovie at +125 or so since he loves scoring on us, but I prefer the longer shots for fun.


All of that said means I've locked in a 0-0 game going into a shootout.

Let's hope that 3rd period in Pittsburgh has been erased from the memories!

GFG!

Waiting for my Amazon munchies delivery. Muahaha. Let's go!

 

[Felidae]

Probably missing this one but hopefully they don't leave Markstrom hanging this time around.

 

[Kranix]

Phillips scorches the Flames for 3 goals on the PP. Conroy resigns. Treliving Resigns from Toronto.

Watch it be Connor McMichael who scores on us.

 

[Kranix]

Watch it be Connor McMichael who scores on us.

Whom former Flame(and #27), and traitor Brian McLellan foolishly took 1 pick before the Flames took Pelletier in 2019.

 

[flames23]

Watch it be Connor McMichael who scores on us.

I looked at him too. And now that you've said it I expect it to happen. Lol. His odds are only +400 though, so I held off. Felt a bit low. We'll see if I pay for my attempt at being discerning.

Let's get it, boys.

 

[flames23]

Wow. A singular win in 10 starts vs the Caps for Marky. I don't like those odds.

 

[super6646]

Awesome start. Backlund line is wowza. Coronato with a great interception too

 

[flames23]

Ol' Kuemper on pace for 150 saves. We're going back to shot spamming!

 

[Bounces R Way]

Nice
Love when Ruz is hanging in the slot

 

[Lunatik]

 

[Boomstick]

Yeah baby. Great start. Keep pressing.
Ruzicka yeaaah

 

[flames23]

Boom! Rosy!

 

[Boomstick]

Interesting. The Caps announcers were talking about Matthew Phillips and said he turned down a 2 year contract offer from Conroy. Not sure I ever heard that or not. It was probably a 2 way contract, so he turned it down.

 

[JPeeper]

lol @ Huberdeau calling out Kuzy for a dive after the hit. Respect
