I thought Lundqvist was the hot goalie.

I might be wrong, but didnt Lindback shut us down before?

Early game day thread. 0-48.

[DCRedhawk21]

I think the time the Caps played NSH with Lindback in net, he let in four goals en route to a 4-2 caps win (including that nasty snipe from Semin).

Capitals beat the Predators 4-1, Lindback was playing. They lost 3-1 to them also and Rinne was in net.

Really interested to see how that 2nd line does having top two off season acquisitions on same line.

Linndbäcks stats against Caps. Not that big sample size though and he was pretty good in FEL, so maybe he's taken a step forward.

[Dr John Carlson]

O/U: 5 games before we want Wolski off the roster?

Do you pay any attention, unless he scores on his first shift, people will be mad at him.

Also a good bonus I just realized, no Hunter means Ovechkin and Backstrom start the game, not Beagle.

Won't be surprised if it took Wolski a few games to get acclimated, he hasn't been playing much during the lock-out. A few games in the Polish League doesn't really count.

[swimmer77]

I'll be there.

[Ovechkins Wodka]

hat tricks for Ovie and Stamkos caps win 11-3
Oates with 4 assists after putting himself in for purrutu

[mrwarden]

Yeah, it'll be odd having Ovechkin Backstrom and Sem...Ovechkin and Backstrom leading the forwards in icetime again.

[amjay13]

2 for Brouwer, 4-2 Caps.

[RandyHolt]

Brouwer with the first goalgum / celebration. Nick and Carlson goals. Ovi with 2 assists.

I'm not. I intend to follow the Leafs and Caps all season long via my tablet by watching box scores and stats.

I don't plan to watch a single game.
