Honestly, those lines and pairings are probably the best they could possibly be. I see that third line causing a lot of problems.

Hey rit, you forgot to put Grubauer in the Caps lineup.

/You know, when Holtby pulls his sieve routine
//BGDave approves of this post.

I'll probably put this on in the background while I work on my taxes. I hope it's a gong show! Might be fun to watch Richards troll his old team.

About damn time for some Caps playoff hockey!

Dude, you have no idea what you're talking about.














It's usually two weeks...

Hey, 7 games usually takes at least a week and a half!

Moment of silence for Snider at the Phone Booth. Nice gesture.

And the Caps fans (minus one guy) were nice and quiet.



I don't imagine it would have been the same if the Flyers were playing in NYC.

Yeah, fuck that guy. Also, now that the series has started, fuck the Caps.

LET'S GO FLYERS!

Be still my beating heart, is that BILLY CLEMENT on color commentary?

God, I miss Bill Clement. Only slightly less than Gary Thorne (Doing hockey)

Yeah, it's the Flyers broadcast team.

Ah. I haven't listened to a Flyers broadcast in a few years. Coates and Jones annoyed the shit out of me.

 

[elocomotive]

That's a penalty? Really?

 

[ritari330]

Regardless of what the Flyers broadcast crew is saying, that's not a penalty.

 

[elocomotive]

Awful PP by the Flyers.

I'll say what I say on the bench when one of my players complains about a call. "Did the arm go up? Did you hear a whistle? I heard a whistle."

The question is "should it have been?"


Caps are kind of chasing it here.

 

[elocomotive]

Great last few shifts there. Nice work in the corners by Oshie.

That second call was pretty bad.
