Comments on: I’m Keeping an Eye on Ottawa http://www.onfrozenblog.com/2008/03/30/im-keeping-an-eye-on-ottawa/ A Haven for the Hockey Malnourished Fri, 29 Aug 2008 08:05:26 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.1 By: b.orr4 http://www.onfrozenblog.com/2008/03/30/im-keeping-an-eye-on-ottawa/#comment-125592 b.orr4 Mon, 31 Mar 2008 17:01:52 +0000 http://www.onfrozenblog.com/2008/03/30/im-keeping-an-eye-on-ottawa/#comment-125592 @SpartyCuse, Actually, I think we should be rooting for a Pens loss. I know that sounds ridiculous, but the Rangers have four games left and two are against the Isles. I just don't realistically think they won't get four points out of those remaining games. However, if Pittsburgh loses that's going to keep them hungry for their games against Philly. It will also keep Montreal motivated when they play Ottawa on Tuesday since the Habs are battling the Pens for the top spot in the East. And don't forget, a Pens loss would also keep the Devils alive for the top spot in the Atlantic and they play the Bruins on Wednesday. Is that complicated enough? @SpartyCuse,

The Rags are tied with the B's and Flyers, but have 1 game in hand. That game is tonight vs. Pittsburgh. If they lose, then its NYR, PHI, and BOS all tied for 6-8, and the Caps 3 points back, with all teams having 3 games left. It pains me to say this as a Caps fan, but tonight (Monday) LETS GO PENS!!!

Their game against Montreal on Tuesday will be the key to the playoffs. If they should lose and then have to go to Toronto needing a win, I like the Caps chances.

True, he's a classy guy, and I would never wish him anything but the best. But there was a reason he left the Caps, and in all his jobs that have followed, he's never done anything to refute that reason. Most successful regular season coach in Caps’ history.

That guy has so much hockey knowledge and with the Caps commitment to European players, he could be a great asset.

Perhaps is just might be Ottawa that we unseed from the playoffs. Who would have thought that not too long ago?
