Three Caps power plays, two shots on goal, no goals - those are the kind of stats that come back to bite you. Second period ahead.

Second verse, hopefully not the same as the 1st
I lived with a blind guy for a while, then he figured it out and demanded back rent.
Yep
It was ridiculous. I’d type two sentences out and it would take a few seconds after that before any of it popped up. I’m sure there are plenty of computers here that could handle it, but I bet there were more than a few that couldn’t.

I would assume so. We were talking about it late last GDT. When it hits 1200+ it’s really laggy for some.

Is a Rink Rabbit the same thing as a Puck Bunny? Don’t hit me if that’s insulting. I really don’t know what those are exactly.
There's always more to learn about Hockey.
We’re the ladies of the Rink. Instead of Rats we’re Rabbits. We also appreciate the hotness of the Caps while still knowing what the hell is going on.
On a side note, why is “Rink Rats” the de facto name for visitors of Japers’ Rink? Shouldn’t it be “Japers”? Or is that just too logical?

Happy funtime fact of the night: in the last three games in which Ovechkin has gotten a point he has either been kicked out or had a multi-point night.

When coincidental minors are called when either team is already not at full strength, they don’t affect the number of players on ice for either side.

+1
Is done to keep coincidentals from putting PK team down to three players.
But Brawndo's got what plants crave. It's got electrolytes.

I didn’t either. So the guys in the box have to wait for a change or a break in the action?

Eric Fehr extends pt streak to 7 games, 2d longest in the league right now. His 8 goals would lead three NHL teams.

to elaborate, if you can’t draw a defender to you, and then pass it to one of the two guys who aren’t covered by the other guy, then something’s wrong. He made a great pass to Flash, and the initial save was (and had to be) fantastic.

by Gould Old Days on Dec 7, 2009 9:08 PM EST up reply actions
Again, we are talking about different plays. The pass to Flash was great (and the save was even better). Earlier, when AO put it in his wheelhouse in the slot there was no reason for him to tap it back to Baxter the way he did.

super-delayed response here:
If memory serves I was referring to lame work by Semin causing us (him) to unnecessarily lose control of the puck in the o-zone, and then going and getting it back past mid-ice and bringing it back to where it was in the first place. This eventually leading to the goal which yes he had a hand in (the second part)
1 second left in the penalty…sweet!
