    Weird hockey related Super Bowl stat...the last time the Niners were in the Super Bowl the Washington Capitals lost to the Pittsburgh Penguins 4-1 on Super Sunday...today after 2 period Penguins beating the Caps 5-2. When Ravens won the Super Bowl the Capitals won on Super Sunday.

    Nice to hear Backstrom get called out. Curious about the Super Bowl for you...do you root for the Niners cause they're playing the Ravens, or the Ravens so the Niners don't get their 6th ring?

    Hahaha hell no. I'd never convert, Been a Skins and Caps fan all my life (32 years old). Often painful, never boring. Pens are enemy number 1. The 90's was full of pain and misery from you guys. For the record I respect the hell out of your team, I just love to hate them.

    They are on your side. Speaking of who Pierre slobbers on the most...just in case you didn't know, even though Malkin and Kunitz made a great play, Sid on the ice is the reason they were able to channel such great play into a goal. This game is pretty much over unless we sneak a goal or two...

    The usual Charmin Ultra soft call against us. Not that our PP was doing shit anyways. We look horrible.

    I'm pretty sure we both have the homer bias here, but all they do is slob all over Crosby, always have until AO won MVP then it got a little more even.

    He played here last year, he should know that can happen. Never seen it work to our benefit though until today.

    Pierre has the hard on for Crosby you mean. There's no question Ovechkin isn't in the same league as Crosby/Malkin anymore, but he was there for a good 2-3 years. Don't know if he can get back to that point. Holtby just killing us today.

    I just feel like they'll get whatever breaks they need/other team doesn't step up when they play against the Ravens.

    Missing the 1st round pick next 2 years will hurt, as will the bullshit $18 million in cap penalties again this next year. We need secondary help badly, have to replace London Fletcher soon, and could use more O line help as well. We'll have to see how his knee recovers. I agree Shanahan...

    Not used to sucking in the regular season...usually wait until the playoffs to break my heart, usually in a Game 7. I was hoping Jersey would tire you guys out a little more but you just beat the shit out of them. Hopefully we stay out of the box better than we have done so far this year, and...

    You have to hope this...and even if it's true Cousins might still be consoling Romo after another 3+ pick game next year.

    Surprised the vote wasn't a little closer, but really the numbers were on his side. When you lead the league in both passing yards per attempt and rushing yards per attempt with the highest Passer Rating and Total QBR among the 3 stud rookie QB's, it's probably your award.

    Freds dredging did pretty well for only one day, can't remember how much it was but it was decent for one day. Todd is such an idiot..."Day shift is going to have to step it up if we're going to make it." What a crock of shit, Dave's crew has been the only one stepping up all season. He's...

    I expect Erskine to get a game or two for the elbow on Simmonds tonight. Just not a smart play. Even dumber was there was no penalty called, but Hendricks and Rinaldo get ejected b/c linesman was doing their usual false start on a faceoff.

    It'll be funny when the Caps lose out with the new lottery too. Flyers tomorrow and Pens on Sunday. could be 1-7-1 by the time the Super Bowl pregame comes on.

    8 PP's already for Toronto tonight. Good to be the Caps. Somehow leading 2-1. Maybe we could get a 5 on 3 at some point tonight to even it out.

    The new narrative today is that all this controversy surrounding Lewis will make him play even harder on Sunday. You can bet if the Ravens win and he does anything on defense he'll probably get MVP unless Rice or Flacco goes nuts on offense.

    We just always seem to be on the wrong end of that, puck along the boards, he's sending it on it's way all the way around...I just think with the way the rule is written it shouldn't be a penalty. I guess you could call it careless, but that's true of nearly any shot and a lot of passes then...

    Read somewhere else he was arrested for assaulting a teenage boy at his school a few years back too. Would be nice to have some eyewitness accounts, especially since 3 people were supposedly hurt in the whole thing.

    The shot is still there. He could have had about 3 more of those this year if Green could be hitting that pass better. Still worried about him and Backstrom though, both guys look to be declining rapidly. Hopefully they can get their shit together.

    Finally...Caps get a win. Was just bitching about how many times Mike Green was going to miss an easy pass to Ovechkin for a one timer when he finally put one right in his wheelhouse. Positive signs, still so much to work on.

    Hahaha I'm sorry bro, I just think you have to throw out all those things when it comes to the hockey season, especially a 48 game one. Making the playoffs just gets you into the semi crapshoot.
