In a blatant rip off of The Battle of Alberta, Abel to Yzerman and others, here's the ever-evolving Japers' Rink Glossary, designed to assist you in understanding just what and whom the hell I'm talking about (to be pinned at right). Additions are always welcome, so if I'm missing anything, straighten me out.
Glossary
Baby Face - Eric Staal
Baby Food - Martin Gerber
Butt Fugly - Rod Brind'Amour
Candycanes - The Caps' Southeast Division rivals from Carolina
Frodo - Martin St. Louis
GMGM - Caps' General Manager George McPhee
Lurch - former Cap (thankfully) blueliner Ivan Majesky
MHM - The mainstream hockey media
Neanderchuk - now-retired Lightning Captain Dave Andreychuk
Princess - Matt Pettinger
Rags - The Caps' former Patrick Division rivals from Gotham
Rico Fatass - Keith Tkachuk
Sidney Crosby Hat Trick - A goal, an assist and an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty in the same game (coined by Decline the Penalty)
The Goal - Alex Ovechkin's twisting-sprawling-physics-defying tally against Phoenix on January 17, 2006, shown here:
The Toe - Tim Taylor, so named for the toe-in-the-crease no-goal that helped the Caps past the Bruins in the 1998 Playoffs.
Whalers - The Caps' Southeast Division rivals from Carolina
