Brooks laich. Can't make a pass to save his life.

I think the Caps are weathering the storm pretty good. I am getting a good feeling. If feelings are worth anything?

Schultz does that better than Orlov and Erskine.

[Kallejohansson]

Which line is our first? Ovi's line sure isn't playing as one (so far), Russia-Sweden-Canadian line is.

I'm tired of all this negativity. I think we are at winning the matchup with chimera-backstrom-semin which is a good sign.

[Capitlols]

Holtby's puck-handling is refreshing.

[BrooklynCapsFan]

Some ******** just played More Than a Feeling at the bar.

[Brian23]

I seriously feel like I see 85 every other shift.

Could they be running our speed lines to try and ride our Ovi lines later on in the night?

marchand is a tool

I agree and am completely fine with this first period on the road thus far.

[Ridley Simon]

so far no team really has had a quality scoring chance

Nope, this is Hunter's actual strategy.

The dreaded PP.

[WetHog]

A goal on this PP would be a huge boost to the Boys confidence.
