[jewseejay]

for fantasy purposes i need backstrom, ovie n semin to get goin as well as Giroux but summin tells me hell be fine

 

[stillin729]

I don't miss Richards and I always hated that empty stat machine Jeff Carter

Let the New Era begin...

 

[frenchblue23]

I hope Schenn works out for you guys. I already knew Simmonds was gonna flourish.

 

[hawkflight6]

Even with the loss yesterday, I'm feeling pretty good. We have looked a hell of a lot better these past 2 games than the first 3.

Hopefully we can beat Ottawa tonight, who have looked even worse than us this year

[DeadsetAce]

krejci back tonight

 

[DeadsetAce]

THIS is the start we needed. and the PP is alive. two pretty text book PP goals.

kelly goal was nice as well, lucic doing the work and kelly banging home the trash

 

[dmxfury]

Pens up 2-0, I'm watching this Philly WSH game, and I switched to the World Series, literally saw one pitch in 1.5 min, and went back to hockey ha ha

 

[physicx]

id watch baseball too but the newness of the nhl season hasnt worn off yet

got tickets to the next 3 home games vs NYR, Van and maaaybe Was too

 

[doublejs07]

Caps looking GOOD...

Don't sit on this %%%%...go for the jugular and keep the pressure up!!!

 

[scuse7]

They taking it, they're dominating the Flyers.

Ovechkin with 2

Pens look good tonight too.

 

[physicx]

james neal

forgot to start lucic in one of my leagues tho

 

[dmxfury]

Eastern conference going to be beastly come playoff time

 

[duba169]

The rangers have been playing at such odd times man it's driving me nuts

 

[DeadsetAce]

just what we needed tonight

toronto played last night tho...so they've gotta be a bit tired

 

[hawkflight6]

Finally Oveckin gets going, good news for my fantasy team

And can someone please tell Johnny Oduya to stop giving the opposition scoring chances?

I think he's had more passes picked off coming out of his own end than he's completed. That's at least 4 goals this year scored against us cause he can't control the puck in his own end

 

[philballa09]

just not our night

but dang Lilja sucks balls. every time he was on the ice they scored. giving me nightmares of Modry

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Yeah I'm a hockey fan and fighting should be taken out, it's stupid beyond words and I don't believe it actually attracts fans.

attracting fans isn't the reason fighting is needed or why it's a good to have in the NHL...

You are right, there isn't a single good reason, it's a relic of another time that shouldn't exist, it's good for nothing besides melting the brains of your work force and incurring lawsuits.

Yea, OK....

It's a GREAT way for players to police themselves and others on the ice.  Take out the fighting and you get more stick infractions, which are 10x worse than taking a knuckle to the jaw.  Fighting keeps the game honest.  I knew there would be an overraction from many people as soon as Asham KO'd Beagle.....
