I just hope I don't have to chew glass and chug lemon juice to stay awake like I did during the Phil game.

Go Caps!!!

Go Caps!!!

Dallas has the 4th best offense and 4th worst defense, the Caps have the 10th best offense and are playing their backup goaltender, who hasn't played an NHL game since November 29th, where he was pulled after allowing 3 goals on 11 shots.

I'm expecting a lot of goals personally...

 

[g00n]

For some reason I have the impression that we don't usually do well against Dallas.

Here we go:

Series Notes

*This is the first of two meetings this season between the Stars and Capitals.

*The Stars were 2-0-0 against Washington last season.

*The Stars have won five straight games against the Capitals.

*The Stars are 44-27-18 all-time vs. Washington.

Statistical tidbits

*The Stars are 9-4-1 in their past 14 home games and 10-9-5 at home for the season.

*The Capitals are 7-2-3 in their past 12 road games.

*The Stars are 7-6-1 vs. the Eastern Conference.

*Washington is 6-6-2 vs. the Western Conference including 4-2-0 vs. the Central Division.

*Washington is 23-1-3 when it scores the first goal of the game.

*Washington is 1-11-5 when its opponent scores first.

*Stars defenseman Trevor Daley has three goals in his past four games and is tied for second in goal scoring among NHL defensemen with 11.

On the plus side, the Stars PP is slumping.

This sure does looks like a loss... So i guess we gonna win!

4th best offense and 4th worst defense,

I thought BB was coaching the ducks?


Well maybe it will be "fire wagon" hockey tonight.....

 

[g00n]

Lettin-em-in first off the ice for Dallas this morning so likely starting. Was pulled on Tuesday and Lindback got the start Thursday. Could be an interesting rollercoaster game.

 

[Govechkin]

Hopefully we see what Peters can/can't do, so we know what to/not to fix at the TDL. I'm expecting a bounce back effort from the boys in white, they will probably be gassed so best to put the game away early. 4-2 Caps, Kuzy gets one, an unlikely D will score, and a PP goal.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

I would feel better if we called up Gruby from Hershey to play tonight.

 

[stanleycaps18]

Not that it matters but:

*The Stars are 44-27-18 all-time vs. Washington.

Includes their time in Minneapolis.

 

[Suds]

What ever happened to Obrien? I know he was injured but.....


Was he demoted also?

 

[Blades of Steel]

I would feel better if we called up Gruby from Hershey to play tonight.

Peters needs to play

Grubs is hurt I think anyway

 

[fedfed]

Over/under on the number of shots Peters faces before getting pulled?

 

[CapsJunkie]

the stars are so stacked

 

[Hivemind]

I would feel better if we called up Gruby from Hershey to play tonight.

The fact you feel more comfortable with an injured goalie than Peters...

 

[Blades of Steel]

The fact you feel more comfortable with an injured goalie than Peters...

on a positive note, grubs is back from injury tonight.

 

[g00n]

I hate 8pm starts.

 

[Efactor]

I hate 8pm starts.

No bashing start times either.

 

[tycoonheart]

Any word on Eric Fehr?

 

[Dr John Carlson]

the stars are so stacked

Too bad their defense isn't. 27th in GA/GP.

 

[LifetimeUFA]

Any word on Eric Fehr?

looks like he is back in
