The coldest days best warm my hockey heart


Knee-jerks: @ Newark Devils, 12/7


  • Knee-Jerk ReactionsGood to see Scott Stevens in a Caps uniform again, even if it was via an artists painting.
  • Mike Green was doing a great job keeping the puck in the zone on the power play.
  • Pothier with yet another bad pass up the middle of the defensive zone that turns into a goal for the other team.
  • Kolzig with a great save on Gionta... then Zubrus with the goal.  Ex-Caps do love to score on their old team, no?
  • Just noticed in the 2nd period that Poti has and A on his sweater.
  • Oveckin, Backstrom, and Semin with some great work and nice passing on the power play resulting in a laser of a shot for a much needed Semin goal.
  • Then they kill all momentum by allowing a goal right after Semin's tally.
  • Green with an absolute piss poor penalty in the final minute of play thus ending the game for the Caps and yet another loss.
  • Anyone else with DirecTV and NHL Center Ice not only notice that they've moved the channel locations of the games to 769 - 785?
  • More intriguing than the channel moves is looking forward to Thursday, December 13th on channel 769.  The guide lists the NHL STATS CHANNEL from 4pm - 2am.  This could be interesting.

Let's try this again:
"Just noticed in the 2nd period that Poti has and A on his sweater."
That's for the assist he would give the devils on their GWG.

noticed bruce called out olie (by name) and pothier (by "duh, who else could it be") in the papers this morning. hope that doesn't backfire. i like bruce's passion, but seldom does calling out players in the paper work.

It's about time a coach got on these guys for bonehead plays. Game in and game out, the Caps play the opposition even or better yet they make a critical mistake that ends up in the back of the net. And, yes, Olie has got to make that save.

looks like it worked... olie played great, and so did the rest of the caps!
