this game is a match up of “What the hell has happened to these two teams”

Seeing Wyman dressed for the game makes me happy.
Also, based on my research for an upcoming post, the Caps are the 4th most penalized team in the past month. That, coupled with an injury-laden Bolts squad, leads to what Boucher would call “adversity.” Color me a little worried about tonight’s result.
Also, crowd here at the TBTF looks a little sparse, though I did expect more red shirts than what are apparent at the moment.

This one had me cough so hard I threw up a couple of times. Gross, I know, but that’s what happened. And it was gross too….

My condolences to each of you for having to suffer NBCSN.,
Maybe Pierre will get hired as a GM this off season and all that suffering can be avoided in the future… except in the town he becomes GM in, of course?
That still doesn’t solve Millbury and Jones though…

I see it as a fine line
between having a professional blog for all comers and dampening down a fanbase’s emotion, take for instance the Rangers/Devils game tonight. The experience on the blog could be a lot better with chirping going back and forth but ILWT really takes rival commenting as a threat and quickly deletes any comments that could be seen as trash talking. Over at the Banter we are a little more lenient with rival commenters and if they get too riled up then we ban them. I think that to impose a “language rule” I guess, in my opinion takes something away from the aspect of having a fan generated blog

Oh I get you completely. It’s just that in our case(s) we’ve got a unique situation, in that we have the opportunity to establish guidelines which encourage community members to “police” the sites (guess I’m speaking for RC too) as they grow.

what happened to the offense from the 1-3-1? Was it solved by the league once they got tape of it? Is it a lack of execution?

this may seem ridiculous but lets agree that SY will not sell the farm for this season, so we won’t be getting a silver bullet this season.
In the future I really want to see the Goalies we have in Europe/Russia…Helenius for instance is having a terrific season…his line is
24 GP, 17-6-0, 6 SO, 1.54 GAA, .937 sv%
I know that is not NHL but 3 years ago in AHL he was 2.72 GAA .918 sv% so its not inconceivable that these stats are real…Finnish goalies have history in NHL.
A lot is said about having to give up a ransom for one the young prospects around the league...
but there are quite a few on the market – Bernier, Lindback, Schneider, Bishop, that I think one would have to become a possibility at some point.
Ben Bishop would seem to make sense, the Blues are contenders but could use another piece or two, and they just extended Elliott.
Woohoo, Teddy!

No turnovers? By that scorer a pair of glasses
Overall, I thought the Bolts looked good. They got a little sloppy there and of course the CrAPS scored in short order. I thought Stamkos looked lost for most of the period, a couple of his positioning gaffes lead to stellar chances for the CAPS, but he figured out this wasn’t the All-Star Game on his last shift. We need a big second half from Downie, Purcell, Malone and Moore to turn this ship around.

Roli’s making $3M. Montoya’s got to get healthy. Plus he hasn’t played enough to really know how he’ll shake out over the long haul. I’d go for him for less than $1M (he’s making $600K now) IF he gets some more games this season.

[deep breaths] If I felt this way about a team that defeated us, or that we’d played over and over, I’d have to say there’s a point there. But I respect the Red Wings (eliminated us 3 times/Central Division), the Blackhawks (eliminated us twice/Central Div.), the Canucks, the Sharks (eliminated us twice), or the Canucks. Just the Ducks.
It’s not reputation that makes me feel this way. It’s actual events.

Let me bow out here.
I hope the best for your team, I do. Trust me there. I simply wish to see what could be a historical comeback with the classiest player in the NHL today. I did not mean to make it sound as if I was ‘dismissing your feelings’, simply that I know, first hand, how quickly what was ‘a simple penalty’ could become some terrible play to people, since I knew it first hand, when rooting for your team against the Canucks, then rooting for the Canucks against the Bruins.

Don’t worry – he’ll probably be back to coaching London next season. I’m really hoping Patrick Roy is the next head coach of the Washington Capitals? Can’t you just see Roy’s ego versus Ovechkin’s ego? I’d get season tickets, just for that! /fantasy
