Given we're averaging the most goals per game in the lead (and it's only bigger if you take away the 5-0 game against the Sharks when Ovechkin and Backstrom were out), being down 2-1 and with a PP to start the 3rd didn't seem too daunting.

Ovechkin does it again. Caps pull it out in regulation at Vancouver. Ovechkin remains on pace for 81 goals. No, it won't last, but it's fun watching him pot one every game.

McDavid might get to see Grubauer in net for us tomorrow night instead of Holtby. Grubs is pretty decent though. Also heard Pens got booed off the ice at Consol after failing to score on an extended 6 on 3. Was it as glorious a failure as I'm picturing in my head? Letang/Sid/Malkin/Kessel +...

Just a horrible giveaway to start that whole play. Calgary's D is so bad. I knew we were going to shred them horribly and we did a few nights later.

Not the best back check on that play. Sweet move though.

Torts back in the Metro...not sure what will happen in Columbus now. With him behind the bench, anything is in play.

If there's any justice, somehow the Caps will end up a wild card and play them in round 1. Habs go up 3-1 in the series, only to lose 3 straight while Holtby goes all Halak mode on acid. Caps up 1-0 going into the 3rd period of Game 7, Habs come out a house of fire and look to have tied the...

Whoever was in charge of the new story hit a home run. Not sure if all the new "build an alliance stuff" will have lasting value while you wait for more chapters, but the first 9 were fantastic.

See Sid is on the board in a big way finally. Ovechkin with a goal to put us up 2-1 in the 2nd for his 900th career point. He could have 2 more tonight if not for a couple nice saves by Rammo

400k seems very small potatoes.

If only this weren't totally true.

Not sure if hasty judgements on Giants being decent and Eagles being terrible were wrong...or Eagles just being less shitty in a truly terrible game.

Apparently they cancelled their team dinner. Despite their overall result last year expectations were high after the 2nd half and with all the injury issues (not to mention moves in the offseason). Heads might start rolling soon. Fucking 0-6-0 is rough. Not even getting to OT for free points...

I don't know, I feel like Todd manages to con people into thinking he's some serious miner so they loan him money for equipment and shit. Dave last season was talking about how he borrowed money from his family to come in as a partner with all the new equipment and how at the end of the year...

Greatest thing ever.

I do think the Flames overachieved a bit last year, but I also think the talent is there on that team. The fact that made that late push to get into the playoffs and win a round (granted, not like they drew a tough opponent in Round 1) after Giordano went down was the big surprise for me...

I have a problem with interceptions. Lets go after Revis!

Skins D keeping us in this with turnovers (2nd week in a row). Breeland killing it, 2 recovered fumbles and a pick now.

Garcon just broke his ankles.

Nights like tonight, Edmonton isn't unhappy at all to have had a bunch of #1 picks.

And you're a Ravens fan?

Also the fact that Brooks Orpik has more goals and points than Crosby (I know, low bar this year) is just weird.

Backstrom returned tonight, ho hum 1 goal, 2 assists. Ovechkin 3 goals in 3 games played. Oshie with another goal. Carlson continues to put up old Mike Green numbers at less than 65% of old Mike Green's cap number. I guess the negative was Holtby killed his own shutout by kicking the puck...

Yeah was crazy seeing how little gold they were getting the first few seasons. Also was kind of funny looking back on last season, even though Parker was kind of a dick about them staying the extra week to get more gold Gene and the other guys were shitting on his choice of ground but they...

Just use some clever coach's challenges when Tim Peel is reffing, can get there again

Noticed him last night against us quite a bit. He's going to be pretty good I agree.

The short backstory for the 3 guys they're covering now is...Todd Hoffman and the Hoffman crew came up to Alaska super green, didn't get much of anything first year or two. Then they finally had the first "big" year of any of the crews with around ~900 ounces. Todd got greedy, probably was...

Sharks are a damned machine to start the year.

Kind of excited for this season. After Todd's comeback last year, might have all 3 of the main operations (Parker, Todd, Tony) all pulling some serious gold out of the ground this season. Really want to see if the dredge can pull out big gold like Tony thinks it can too.

Just a crazy angle to somehow still be able to put it home from. He damn sure wasn't expecting the puck to come back his way.

Sweet look there from Spezza. Benn had way more of an angle than Ovie appeared to though. Still think 9 times out of 10 Kuznetsov should just shoot from his position instead of trying that pass back to Ovechkin.

It's shocking to me how tough it is for most announcers (and christ, even some of the head coaches in the league) to remember that a 16 point or fewer lead is still only a 2 score game. Of course, these are the same dipshits that when down 35-20 with under 5 minutes to go would only go for the...

Freeman, fantasy monster

Simms is just a complete idiot most of the time doing games.

Can't even see Ovechkin because he's below the goal line when he punches this in from almost zero angle.

Ovechkin and Kuznetsov finish off the 'hawks with a highlight reel goal. Just sick. Honestly both goalies kind of kept the scoring down tonight, could have been a lot more goals.

I've done it before, shit happens. Seriously doubt there is any rift whatsoever.

So Ovechkin broke the news on why he didn't play last night. Trotz benched him because he set his alarm incorrectly for 8:30pm instead of 8:30am and overslept practice. Supposedly reason why Trotz didn't go public with it was that he didn't feel like it was a big deal, just a simple...

I'll take Good Hard, Canadian Hockey for 1000, Alex.

I don't think even if they had gotten it right that it would have affected the game all that much. Granted you guys kind of took your foot off the gas and we might have gotten some momentum from the goal, but overall just score effects I think, because you all were all over us first period and...
