Does losing this game give us any higher draft spot? Or effectively does winning move us lower down the draft board?
LETS GO CAPS
I’m just happy to see Ovi out there one more time this season 🥺
Caps score.
GOALLLLLLL
#ALL ABOARD THE FIREWAGON THIS MF GOING END TO END
#LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SNIFFLES WITH THE SNIPE
Snively absolutely deserves a roster spot next year.
VA stand up!!
Still have no idea why we haven’t played Snively more this season
Might be the last game with Kuzy
Again
Hello out there, we’re on the air, it’s hockey night tonight!
Last two games at home against metro
2 goals in 63 seconds
2 goals in 7 minutes
I walked back into the room just in time for the second!
Hang on, I’ll go get a fork and more napkins once play resumes.
#LFG BOIS IM CHUGGING MISTER SANDMAN
Backy still has the hands, if that hip could fully heal he could still be a top line center
I’m not seeing any board ads so far this game and it’s so nice. Dunno why they’re not playing but I don’t miss them
😂
Is that #200 for Smith?
Edit: yep, thanks Locker
WAT
Smith 200! This is a show
Way to go smith!!
#REEEEEEEEEEEEE ANOTHER ONE SMITHY TOP CORNER LFG
One of the guys did say the Devils were resting two of their defense tonight.
Screw Bedard, screw NJD!
NJD does realize the difference in winning or losing this game is the difference between playing the Isles vs. the friggin Rangers, right? Some seriously head scratching roster decisions for this game.
Still waiting on the tax!!!
God damnit
I hate not being happy
Jekyll and Hyde with this Caps team. Can beat any team, but we just didn’t come to play this season
hilarious that we can dominate a team like NEw Jersey mere days after getting pooped on against a much worse team in order to fuck over a rival
I’m down for the Devils to knock the raggies out in round 1
if only we werent eliminated from the playoffs. this game would be so much more enjoyable. sucks wanting them to lose for the better draft picks
Is it me, or does anyone else think Protas sucks?
Stop fucking winning. 😡
Devils score.
Damn
Ovechkin with zero shots again. Wtf?
I didn’t want nugs anyway. I have Holy Cow chicken. 🥰
Lavi: draft picks are overrated, I am gone anyway
cookie to sivley
swedish connection
smitty turnover
