Last Game in the First Round of this here Tournament GNT!!!!

[Destroydacre]

Sorry Caps fans. I really like watching Washington play, but when there's a possibility for a 1-8 upset (and the 1 isn't the Sharks) I always will root for the 8 seed. Unless it's the Rangers. Or Detroit. Or Dallas. Anyway, good luck to both teams and Go Habs!

Note: I fully expect Washington to win this game.

As a Bruins fan, I just can't root for the Habs. Go Caps

"Last game of the year, can't hold anything back now."

Any truth to the rumor Olie Kolzig will get the start tonight. You no you can't mess with "ZILLA"!

(This will be my last pre-game update and last post until the puck drops. I am taking my dog to the dog park so he can beat up boxers and cocker spaniels for an hour or so, to blow off some steam. This way, he will pass out tonight and leave me be)

David Steckel, Quintin Laing and John Erskine satyed late on the ice indicating that they will not get a sweater tonight.

Walker, Flash and Morrison all came off early but there are only two slots open for the three of them so someone is not getting a sweater out of that group. Walker has been the odd man out, but Flash was left out of some drills indicating it may be him in the swank Owners box tonight.

Tarik projects the lines as such:

8 - 19 - 22
28 - 9 - 21
25 - 18 - 16 (i expect these guys to be the MVP line tonight)
24 - 15 - 10

I dont like em, but I am not an NHL coach.

Ovechkin did not skate. When they asked Gabby if he was healthy, he responded "I hope so".


When you want money, yo go to the back. When you want goals, you go to the front of the net. GO THERE!!

If Halak steals this series...wow...that would be something....I fully expect the Caps to win but I really want the Habs to win...

There will be a lot of explaining to do in DC if the Caps don't pull this one out....

If Halak pulls this off... it will easily overshadow what Boucher did against the devils. The most offensively gifted team in the league getting shut down by a relative unproven and unheralded post-season goal-tender would be quite the upset.

Although, I don't think it's going to happen. Ovie and the caps advance to face philly.

Go Habs!

 

[Automattic]

Ok, so I kinda hope Plekanec scores the winner. I admire the trashity trash talk, well, more the backing it up part...

 

[Caps Revenge]

Well, this is it boys and girls...Just settled in, the beer is tasting good this evening! I'm so pumped up that I feel like a kid. I don't know why the Caps always do this to me, but I've come to accept it. I'm not gonna lie...my nerves are shot right now. (8 more beers should solve that problem) Even with the nerves and adrenaline going, I'm still confident that they'll find a way to break Halak tonight. LET'S GO CAPS!!!!!!!

I may ditch you all and go watch this thing at the gym. HD TVs everywhere including individual ones on each cardio-machine. I am a ball of nerves. It may be a better place for me to watch it.

Thoughts??

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

Walker in, Flash out.

Walker will work the fourth line with Gordo and Brads. Why do I have a sneaking suspicion he will have a MAJOR (cough, game winner) impact on this game...

 

[Caps Revenge]

I hope you're right.

No sorry necessary. I know I always root for a good upset, as long as it's not my team being upset, or a rival doing the upsetting.

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

OK, I am staying in....for now, let's do this.

GO TIME!!!

GNT hasn't even been started in the swamp yet. Man, I love it here!

 

[BOSSMANPC]

This should be a good game. I'm assuming this is the GNT. I will stand by my prediction in the other topic. Great series so far.

Lets go Caps....Sorry comeds but I feel the Caps adavancing would make for a better series in the later rounds.

Again kudos to the Habs for one hell of a series win or lose.

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

This is probably playing right now:

Geez, somebody needs to tell Brian E. that it's time to get a big boy haircut...
