I wonder if we'll show up for the last 10 minutes

 

[Cappy76]

We about to see top line burra?

 

[Sam Spade]

I guess it's another "burn the tape" game...aye?

Why? The Caps aren't playing bad.

 

[maacoshark]

Bad goal against

In what sense? It was a good shot by Chaisson. I think the biggest problem was the dmen backing in and letting him get the shot off clean.

I'm not sure if you are being serious or not...

 

[marcel snapshot]

It does seem like we've been getting pretty average goaltending

 

[tycoonheart]

Maybe we should go back to heavy Trotz hockey

 

[Cappy76]

Wtf is going on with these refs?

 

[Sam Spade]

Completely. People have unrealistic expectations. Main mistake was the JC turnover and the shorty, changes the game a bit, it happens.

Maybe not, but I'll take the original PK scheme we had. This aggressive play on the PK isn't working out so well thus far.

"Burn the tape" is generally reserved for getting blown out

Unrealistic expectations? Say what? You do realize they are playing Edmonton, right?

Its going to be a long season for you buddy

 

[Cappy76]

Did someone within the organization have some choice words for Bettman after the appeal not being overturned to have those last 2 calls against us?

 

[Devil Dancer]

They haven't played great, but the reffing has been atrocious. I hope someone at NHL HQ is embarrassed by this bullshit.

Holtby has played well. He stopped Mcdavid on a couple of breakaways. Holtby showed up. No one else did.

 

[peterthegreat12]

It has been a long few decades guy. =)

 

[TRASHCAT]

Imagine trading Taylor Hall for Larrson

 

[TRASHCAT]

It has been a long few decades guy. =)

Imagine being a hasn't won a cup in forever fan

On the road, against the best player in the NHL. This league is hard and there are no easy opponents.

Makes what the Caps have done the last three regular seasons pretty impressive if you think about it.

That was a bad play but we just didnt show up. We deserve to lose this game.

I said last game that the league is very even and that you can't take any team for granted. You disagreed.

Me? I assume the Caps are gonna lose every game on the western trips, California and western Canada.

Bed time, bummer my GDT winning streak (of 1) is over.
