I’m shamed to say I actually had to google Brooks’ fantasy, still don’t know who she is, but she is cute. Love that he can just put her in for the answer to any question. Although I’m glad to see he kept her out of question #8.

She’s a Victoria’s Secret model. I have to give Brooks props on the Coffee Crisp too. Those things are delicious.

According to Swedish Newspaper “Expressen” http://hockey.expressen.se/nhl/1.1745137/nylander-tvingas-till-provspel-for-kontrakt a Swiss Club, Lugano are interested in Nylander. And here’s the kicker they actually want him enough to offer him one million Swiss Franc after taxes. Lugano got a Swedish coach Kent Johansson so I’m hoping that this means that they haven’t taken it out of thin air and that ther’e sources are accurate. And of course Nylander are willing to go there. Lugano sure is prettier then Siberia though.

Agreed, though I’m not sure how Knuble feels about Ovie’s “bring it in” goal celebrations. Last night he participated in both, but looked like he was ready to head to the bench (not that that’s an entirely bad thing).

Like seemingly everyone else here, I’m loving B.Mo and Knubs. Kudos GMGM.

yeah, there seems to be an adjustment period for new team members when it comes to Ovie’s goal celebrations. Fedorov looked like her feared for his life the first few time Ovie jumped on him. Knuble seems to have a little of the “act like you’ve done this before” philosophy (nothing wrong with that), and we all know for Ovie, every goal is like getting his first goal.

Love those top two line combos. BMo has the speed to get into the rush with Ovie, but also consistently gets back up the ice to back check.

The second line was effective, too. They were matched against the Thornton line all night and kept them off the score sheet while generating chances themselves. It’s clear to me, though that Semin should be on Backi’s left. That way Backi can come out of the right corner and thread those little passes to Semin coming in from the left, just like they do on the powerplay. But then, who plays the right wing on that line? I don’t think Laich is the guy. He really needs to be a third-line center or left wing, bringing some offense to that line. Our other RWs are Clark and Fehr, who just absolutely suck right now, or Bradley, who probably should also be on the third line. Too bad we don’t have two Mike Knubles.

Semin was flying all night on Backstrom’s line. I support keeping Ovie and Semin on separate lines.

Give it a couple of weeks. When Fleischmann comes back, my guess is you’ll see:

8-9-22
21-19-28
14-39-16
10-15-17

Flash and Fehr produced on the same line last year regardless of who their center was, so I’d look for them to be paired again.

Never lie, steal, cheat, or drink. But, if you must lie, lie in the arms of the one you love. If you must steal, steal away from bad company. If you must cheat, cheat death. If you must drink, drink in the moments that take your breath away.

by gotsparkly on Oct 16, 2009 9:30 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I like the idea of Flash and Fehr together, but I think I’d give them Laich as a center, and create a pure checking line of 15-39-10. I guess that means Clark up on the second line’s RW, but he just isn’t a good enough player right now to deserve that.

by Kirg on Oct 16, 2009 9:49 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

unless someone can step up and fill Laich’s role on either of the top 2 lines, I’d prefer him where he is.

by ns on Oct 16, 2009 10:03 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Nah, I’m with ns on that. I Laich him at 2-3LW – that 21-19-28 line is money, as someone else put it. He seems to be very comfortable where he is.

And just to gloat a little, because I can – I called the D pairings :)

I think the top six is fine; bottom six might want a tad more shuffling once Flash gets back.

I dig the idea of a bottom two lines of Flash-Aucoin-Fehr and a rotation of Laing-Steckel-Gordon-Bradley-Clark.

Flash-Aucoin-Fehr is your energy line that provides secondary scoring. There’s a long tradition in hockey of putting your skill rookies on a limited ice time line that is expected to score.

Laing-Steckel-Gordon-Bradley-Clark are your shutdown guys, and you rotate them in and out (and in Laing’s case, up and down from Hershey) based on who’s banged up on any given day.

I don’t like the Flash / Fehr line. I felt Flash was on his way to a 25+ season when not playing with Fehr and then when put together suddenly started to look to Fehr (who isn’t the finisher Flash is). Fehr’s numbers went up but I like them separate, at least until Flash realizes he’s the finisher of that line.

I think Flash and Fehr have some pretty good history together going back to Hershey. They seem to have had good chemistry no matter who their pivot has been.

Here’s the stats, and they show that those guys really do have good chemistry. At even strength, Flash was part of eight line combos last year that scored multiple points. Four of those, including the best (F Street) included Fehr. But when you look at the combos, Flash spent a fair amount of time with Semin, Clark, Kozlov, or Bradley as the other wing.

I posted this in the recap, and I think it’s a big part of the story from last night:

Even strength TOI
Line 1: Laich (12:31), Backstrom (13:36), Semin (13:53) — 13:20 Average
Line 2: Ovi (13:57), Morrison (12:11), Knuble (11:54) — 12:40 Average

Ovechkin was out there for virtually all of the power play time, as usual. Backstrom and Semin got a lot of both PP and PK time. The result was that Ovi (20:53), Backstrom (21:02), and Semin (20:41) all got about the same total ice time.

I love what these lines do for the matchups. You look at the last three cup winners — the Ducks had Selanne and Getzlaf on separate lines; the Wings had Datsyuk and Zetterberg on separate lines; and the Penguins separated Crosby and Malkin. It seems like the Caps have a mismatch ready to go at almost any time.

The Russians were talking to the Russian media. Ten times out of ten, they will give a quote like that to Sovetsky Sport.

Has no actual bearing to their commitment to winning. They will back up all of their goaltenders.

As a matter of fact, I think Clowe, who fell on Theo in period one, was later the recipient of a fine Ovi/Knuble sammich, extra crunchy.

Btw, not that we needed the reminder of how perilously close to the cap the Caps are, but consider that if Theo isn’t able to sit on the bench tomorrow night, the Caps will either have to recall Neuvy (or perhaps more likely Holtby), which would necessitate demoting two of Aucoin/Laing/Sloan OR sign Bacashihua to a contract at close to the League minimum and recall him (while demoting one of the three). Throw in Gordon’s back injury and you can see that until something shakes loose, the Caps had best pray for good health – they’re painted pretty well into a corner.

immediately after tweaked it (shoulder press, arched back during last few reps), felt like my lat was an elastic band that had been plucked real hard and was starting to contract. started to lose movement so i drove home right away.

thought i could “sleep it off” but woke up and couldn’t get out of bed. Felt like the muscle was just not functioning and was extremely tight/stiff. And painful…really f’in painful when i tried to move. after a day or two i though i was ok and bent down to unplug something from my computer. stupid. couldn’t get off the floor. had to call my roomate to pick my ass up from the ground.

Really, this is exactly where we knew we’d be sooner or later. Two weeks ago, when they lost Chris Smith on waivers, I noted:

What this whole Bourque situation points out, however, is the team is one two-week ankle sprain (assuming Fehr and Flash are still out) away from either dressing seven D or playing Nyls.

Well, we’ve got the couple of injuries and we’re close to having to skate either 7D, Nyls, or possibly losing someone else to waivers if a G needs to be recalled. Tenuous, friends, tenuous.

Varlamov did a decent job on only 15 shots. He still has issues with his glove. Anyone on the Caps got any pine tar?

If B-Mo, Knuble, and AO were yesterday’s line du jour, then the Caps should make like a second rate diner and never change the menu. Who doesn’t like this line? Knuble’s there to keep the cuteness down. B-Mo can dance or bash as the situation and his linemates’ demand. And AO can dance or bash as…well…as he sees fit.

Not sure on the date of this. May have been posted before. I think after the Pens game on Sunday it's been thrown out into the open about media bias. I actually don't mind McGuire, but I can't stand Milbury. At least they know our feelings towards them.
Video of Mike Milbury's "Hey Ovie, I'm still your daddy" comment (~4:55 on the clip) during the first intermission of Sunday's game.  Thanks to YouTube user HockeyHaven76.
