Avery is never innocent! What do you guys think about the Devils only dressing 15 players the other night, I'm hearing the league is looking at this as cap circumvention.

 

That's true about Avery. The league is apparently looking into what he did before Wisniewski did the deed. And the Devils are in a big mess now aren't they. They can't expect to play the full season like this.

Wiz got a 2 game suspension, if anyone didn't hear.

 

 

And why would the league look into that? How is that breaking any rules? They are too close to the cap to call anyone up from Albany. That isn't circumventing the cap, it's just poor cap management. In no way, shape, or form is it giving them some sort of advantage. Even so, say it did break a rule, isn't losing punishment enough? They obviously aren't going to be that successful only dressing 15.

Man, Neuvirth was awesome last night, he really kept us in the game. He flat out ROBBED Moulson when he got that breakaway, robbed I tell you!! Ovechkin did a great job to, his goal was great, Islanders goalie never had a chance.

 

 

I know I've said this before but everyone needs to hear this: LET'S GO CAPS!!!!

I love my Capitals but they have been sucking it up lately. The only saving grace they've had so far this year is goaltending (ironic eh?) and pure firepower. Stupid mistakes, not moving their feet, and in general the team isn't meshing as well as the past few years. It was extremely frustrating last night to be in the crowd and watch give away after give away, off sides, hand passes, you name it. I'm really hoping the start of the season jitters wear off soon, because Neuvirth can't save their asses every game.

3-1 is "sucking it up?" Hell, I'd take that...at least you're not 1-3 like the Penguins.

^Yep, I refuse to cheer for the Leafs (although, my entire extended family does). Best thing about being in the GTA was, when I started to really get into hockey and needed a team to cheer for, I had a choice of 5 teams that weren't the Leafs (Sens, Habs, Pens, Sabres, Wings) all within about a 5hr drive.

 

Really sucks about Leclaire getting injured, hopefully it's nothing too serious and he'll be back in net soon.

All of a sudden, things are going the leafs way, which is pretty rare.

 

Enjoy it while it lasts, I have a feeling they will have another craptacular season.

 

I know it's too early in the season to tell anything, but I am still loving the fact that Ovechkin has 4 goals, and Sindey Crysbaby only has 1.

^The leafs are a much better team than last year for sure. If the leafs can squeak in to the last couple playoff spots, they may end up playing the Caps in the first round. Ovie's got four goals. So does Clarke MacCarthur for a fraction of the price..lol

Whether they keep it going, and whether they make the playoffs obviously will still be up in the air.

 

But I think this team is improved enough that they should not repeat last years performance. I don't think we'll finish 2nd last again.

 

Not having awful goal tending will help quit a bit in that regards.
