With a win here I think we have a good shot at going in with the 2 seed come playoff time... skinsfan_nn 02-03-2009, 07:06 PM Theo gets the nod tonight in a pivotal match up on the road tonight vs. the devils. Capitals Insider (http://blog.washingtonpost.com/capitalsinsider/) GO CAPS!!!!! GMScud 02-03-2009, 07:09 PM Big one tonight. We're average on the road and they've won 8 in a row (I think). This would be a nice game to win. GMScud 02-03-2009, 07:29 PM Great start to the game! 2-0 mid-1st period, both goals on the PP. Ovie with both assists, Green and Laich with the tallies... skinsfan_nn 02-03-2009, 09:36 PM Way to snap the devils 8 game win streak in there house! 5-2 CAPS VICTORIOUS another very important 2 points, well earned! GREAT performance by the entire team tonight. Theo coming on strong between the pipes! Nice game again by Green & a deuce by Nylander. Way to get it done on the road CAPS! Capitals vs. Devils - Box Score - February 03, 2009 - ESPN (http://scores.espn.go.com/nhl/boxscore?gameId=290203011) GO CAPS!!!!! skinsfan_nn 02-05-2009, 05:58 PM KOZ (Not sure of the ailment, but he will be missed) out of the lineup for tonights matchup vs. LA. Lingering problems with Johnson could become a problem. We might have to call up the kid from Hersey or make a move. Certainly if Johnson decides to have surgery on the hip. Even as well as Theo is playing you need solid backup going into the playoff stretch & even more so in the playoffs you need depth between the pipes. Capitals Insider (http://blog.washingtonpost.com/capitalsinsider/) GO CAPS!!!!! GMScud 02-05-2009, 09:28 PM Our goaltending and defense has been shitty lately. Green is awesome, but he can't do it alone and he's been playing a ton lately. I think Varlamov and/or Neuvirth are going to start seeing some time soon in between the pipes. Theodore looked shitty tonight. skinsfan_nn 02-05-2009, 09:56 PM The CAPS had two periods (40 minutes of bad hockey) and managed to stay in the game. In the 5-4 losing cause. If they would have played with half the intensity after they woke up in the third period they would have crushed the kings. With that said you can't sleep walk through 2/3 rd's of the game and usually come out on top, but damn they came close. And in the last minute+ of the game it was all CAPS and Quick saved there ass with some unreal saves! He played lights out. Tough and unusual loss on home ice. And OVY got his 200th career goal tonight. I would have much rather had the WIN....but kudos to the GREAT ONE! Fla. will pay the price Saturday night!

GMScud 02-05-2009, 10:20 PM I was texting my buddies during the 3rd period like "where has that intensity been all night??" And yeah, Quick was standing on his friggin head tonight. Kid's a rookie, too. That barrage he withstood at the very end of the game was impressive. A tip of the hat to him. skinsfan_nn 02-06-2009, 06:26 AM Johnson to have hip surgery.
