Washington Capitals 10 Greatest Games, on video soon(?)

I voted no, because I wanted to vote “not yet.”

Perhaps more of a great individual effort than a great game, but I’d maybe throw in Jan. 31, 2008 vs. the Habs where Ovechkin scored 4 goals, 1 assist, the GWG, and had a broken nose.

I think the difficulty of assembling the list suggests that this is not a good idea. Besides, I like to think some of the top 10 games in franchise history are yet to happen.

I’ve only been a caps fan for a little of 10 years now, so I don’t have the history… but I’m also one that has trouble enjoying past games once the tension of not knowing the outcome is gone. I know to some people its nearly sacrilege to say, but old “great” games for me is… meh.

If they do the CGY game they should include the Ovech-cam feed as a special feature.

Voted no.

I’d vote for Game 2 of the 98 ECF as well. A home OT win, was the game where Hasek threw his blocker, and was the loudest I’d ever heard the then-MCI Center until the Caps’ recent resurgence.

I generally agree this would be unnecessary, but I’d buy it.

I vote no. Without a Cup the answer should really be not yet. Although, i like to watch the old games so i’d buy it anyway. I’d vote for the 2-1 win vs. FLA that got us in the 2008 playoffs, also the 5-4 comback win vs. the Rags last year.

April 26, 1990 — Langway with the playoff game winning goal against the Rangers (but it’s the day before the Druce game above)

Didn’t Lou Franceschetti have a dramatic game winner late in a game or in overtime once?

April 7, 1983 — Caps’ first ever playoff victory, against the Stanley Cup champion New York Islanders

And we gotta throw in one of Jim Carey’s amazing 9 shutouts in 95-96. Maybe the Caps’ 2-0 victory on March 2, 1996 — Carey stopped 28 shots including 4 from Ray Bourque and beat Bill Ranford and Adam Oates (oh the irony) on the strength of goals from Craig Berube and Joe Juneau to defeat the team he’d be traded to the following year.

No. Cup then video.

I mean, I’d still buy it, but I think we should include Game 6 of the Pens series last year with Stecks’ OT winner where the Igloo fell SILENT. I’d probably vote for the double-hat trick game over that, though, if I had to pick one…

What about either of the 12-2 wins over Quebec or Florida? Or the 10-2 win over Boston.

Would also add the 9-6 win over the Devils in Terry Murray’s head coaching debut. 6-5 comeback win against Ottawa in 2002. Or as has been mentioned recently, the first win over Philly – 6-0 Palmateer shutout.

Hell no. We havent won anything yet. Win first, then video.

Echoing everyone else: Cup first.

How ’bout game 1 of the ’98 Cup finals against detroit. Sure, we lost, but it was exciting as hell.
