Monday Caps Clips: Twittering Prospects

via SI.com

The return of your savory breakfast links:

Ed. note: We're going to try keep up with a clips post every morning to collect some of the links that might otherwise fall through the cracks and to give you all an open thread to talk about anything you want (which means we hope that the comments to the more single-topic/substantive posts can stay better focused than they sometimes tend to be). Cheers.

Thanks for starting this up again. It’s just like reading the morning Post with coffee.

I had the same thought. Nice pull on the clip.

Olie vs. the German language

Using Yahoo’s babelfish (Google’s translator did about the same job on this passage) the paragraph mentioned runs thusly:

“For the moment my active ice hockey career the end of zuzuneigen seems itself. After the rights at me had been exchanged by the Tampa Bay Lightning shortly before the end of the transfer time to the Toronto Leafs, these would have had to make an offer to me by 1 July – there them it to have done, I am however not to be had now Free agent and for each club. But: My body says to me after all the operations lately that it is time to care me for my family. To 99.9 per cent will I mean Schoner to the famous nail to hang.”

I’m thinking “Schoner” might be the word for an obscure but key piece of goalie equipment.

Love the pic in that article, where the whole Kolzig ‘meine Familie’ is wearing Caps’ regalia. Love ya, Big Guy! Joy and happiness.

the picture also looks to have been taken at kettler (probably his last season here), so i don’t think that’s a round-about peace offering to the caps ownership/management. you didn’t say/imply it was; i was just curious!

So sad to see Olie go out like this :(

by RedBirdie on Jul 13, 2009 10:00 AM EDT reply actions  

Still my all-time favorite Olie moment. It took a lot of guts and the confidence to do this in one take.

i’m looking forward to plenty of pics/observations from camp to show up in the fanposts and fanshots. wish i could be out there!

Too many Pens photos on the TTT site :-/

Is this the D-Camp thread?

Group A: Joel Broda; Trevor Bruess; Greg Burke; Phil DeSimone; Dan Dunn; Joe Finley; Brett Flemming; Andrew Glass; Braden Holtby; Zack Miskovic; Garrett Mitchell; Mathieu Perreault.

Group B: Francois Bouchard; Benjamin Casavant; John Carlson; Stefan Della Rovere; Cody Eakin; Josh Godfrey; Anton Gustafsson; Jake Hauswirth; Dmitry Kugryshev; Eric Mestery; Dmitri Orlov.

Doesn’t that look a bit uneven? Carlson, Gustafsson, Kugryshev, Mestery and Orlov may be the highest upside kids at camp, and they’re all in the same group. Meanwhile, Group A has both Dunn and Holtby. Does Group B have a goalie?

by Gould Old Days on Jul 13, 2009 2:25 PM EDT reply actions  

Group B’s goalies are a pair of invitees – Dustin Carlson (Ohio State) and Garrett Zemlak (Prince Albert of the WHL)

From what I could tell that they rode the B group harder than the A’s also. And I didn’t see Godfrey out there.

Yeah, and it seems to me that Group A is further ahead of Group B in general. (Bouchard is an obvious exception). Interesting division of people.

by Gould Old Days on Jul 13, 2009 4:14 PM EDT up reply actions  

It sure was fun watching Carlson-Orlov paired in back.

Evgeny Kuznetsov hams it up as he joins the Russia men's national team for the "Sweden Games" leg of the Euro Hockey Tour in Helsinki, Finland.

There's a bit of controversy as their game against the Finns is scheduled to be played in Helsinki's outdoor Olympic Stadium.   Where the daytime temps are currently approximately minus-15 degrees Celsius, with periodic heavy snow.

This interview with head coach Zinetula Bilyaletdinov is fascinating, as he frets about the weather and especially when the reporters press him on the leaked reports that Kuznetsov will be centering the top line for Team Russia, just weeks after his 20th birthday.
