So here it is... our final meeting with the capitals. Ovechkins head is as big as ever after he scored his 50th goal. I look for them to come out shooting like crazy in this one. We need to play great defense and have alot better puck control. We CAN NOT turn the puck over in our own zone and think we can win this one. We need this win just as bad as we needed lastnight. Go Canes!

What a great game. I touched upon this the other night, but I am really begin to take notice to Joni Ptikanen. His game is just on. He plays the puck so well on defense. Great to see him get that point. Also did you notice that 3 of our 4 points tonight were scored by our defense??? Pitkanen,Babchuck, and Corvo. That by the way has to be the longest shot I have seen. Its great to have a defense that can score. I will be watching the Florida feed monday night of our game on center ice. Huge help tonight by columbus and toronto, and yet buffalo couldnt beat the rangers... pitty. Soo close... keep it up... Go Canes!

Must win, Right now we are in 6th place after last night. We stay there we get the caps in round one......(The NHL would love that, a Rivalry game in the first round between division foes.) It would be a good series for sure.

I would rather face the flyers...Let Crosby and Co. take on Ovekchin to see who is the better up and comer

But we have played the Caps well lately......

We just need this mentality for the rest of the season. Good news is we dont have to worry about a jammed pack schedule. Bad news means we have to be as good as it gets we cant have a bad game. Plus other teams have to loose. I like our chances but Im not going to buy my playoff tickets just yet.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      NHL Draft 2025

      By Rocky Davis · Posted

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
