Pretty good game from Caps tonight. Finally healthy, and with a game or two after not having any games for a full week now. Vanecek had a better night in goal, too.

Boy did they need that win.

Yeah, still worry about goaltending some, but the little losing streak I think was mostly being so short-handed for awhile, with the 4 Russians out because of covid, Kuzy/Samsonov out extended time with it...and guys like Oshie/Vrana/Eller/Schultz all getting injured during that. Plus missing a whole week of games while Buffalo and Philly dealt with covid stuff. Want to see what we can do finally getting the regular full lineup going for some games.

Pretty stoked for the Lake Tahoe game. Saturday at noon is a bad time for me, but its a really cool idea. The last two games between the Knights and Avs have been really good.

Toronto seemed to make some corrections tonight.

Caps back on track? Would be nice.

Whichever team makes it out of the North Division is gonna be in for a rude awakening when they face an NA team with actual defense. It's been some fun hockey to watch though, i'll give em that.

Was thinking about this for stuff like the Art Ross and Rocket this year. It's not a level playing field across the league at all.

Lightning and Stars gonna have a fuckin 7 game series at some point this year to makeup for the 4 postponed games (so far...).

These divisions suck lol (but will gladly have it over no hockey).

half the Canucks games have been vs the Oil and flames. Getting some Alberta fatigue here (mostly becouse of McDavid and Markstrom bad feels)

Actually how is this fair? These games are going to be made up near the end of the season so we're probably going to be more tired if we get a playoff spot then somebody who hasn't had to make up 4 games.

Fucking clown ass season.

Guess finding gaps in the schedule and adding dates. Game was originally scheduled for end of next month. Assuming they'll try and squeeze a Dallas game in that timeframe instead.
