Stay safe, man.
.

ps stay safe

Stay safe brother.

Appreciate it guys. I'm fine; stuck right in the heart of downtown. All the action seems to have migrated to the east side of downtown near the Rideau Centre where the Leafs are holed up. I came out of my regular coffee shop just after 10am this morning and blasting down the street was the RCMP SWAT team. Not unusual here, but was not expecting this. I'm most worried about being able to get out of here and get my kids from daycare. Last time we went in to lockdown we were here until midnight.

I hope you get to pick up your kids, that would be scary. What happens if you are on lock down till midnight, how does the daycare deal with that..

Thanks. We have friends lined up that can get them if it comes to that. Hopefully it doesn't; would mean that there is still a gunman loose.

4-1 Washington. Two games with 2 goals against, it's about time the dam breaks again with Washington's high-powered offense against Dallas Eakins' "coaching".

I'm still riding that win

Fayne and marincin keep ovie at 1 point or less, and the oilers win 4-3.

Hall And nuge with 2 points, drai with his first goal, and a marincin goal.

As I will be watching the game in my Calgary mancave, I have one request for those who are attending the game tonight: PLEASE SING THE NATIONAL ANTHEM AS LOUDLY AS POSSIBLE TONIGHT!

It may "just be a sporting event" but tonight's game is a great venue for expressing our national pride.

Thank you.

I predict the commentators making Yakupov/Ovechkin comparisons.

You know, cause they are wingers... from Soviet Hockeystan.

4-2 Caps EN.

Dumb Pouliot penalty leads to Ovechkin PP goal at the end of the 2nd, Oilers press for the entire 3rd but can't tie it up.

It is true that we seem to have no shortage of dumb penalties this year. Joensuu has to be the worst at that

Predicting one similar to the LA game. Oilers lose 6-1. HFOil has another meltdown. Eakins talks about how it was a game of inches and actually really close.

This x100, I'm stuck out in Saskatchewan but I'm hoping today's anthem is sung as passionately as the 06 playoffs tonight after the tragedy in Ottawa today.

Agreed.

I'd be wearing a Team Canada jersey to the game if I were attending tonight.

The thing about bad teams that put in a big effort to end a 5 game losing streak is that they need to be on a 5 game losing streak to get that effort.

Thinking 5-2 caps.

So why everyone is going offtopic about something related to Ottawa/national pride?

Anyone attending the game tonight, or going to watch at a bar, wear a team Canada jersey with pride to support our brothers and sisters in Ottawa.

LA game aside, don't think they played any better against Tampa than they did against Calgary or Vancouverx2.

Even in most of their losses, they look like a better team to me, defensive lapses and all. Even if it's a loss, I don't think it will be a 5 goal game.
