Im worried that Atlanta, the 2nd back to back at home, with two of the past 3 games against being 1 goal games, will be our toughest test before the break.

by MetalCap on Feb 3, 2010 8:55 AM EST up reply actions  

Sure, but I had thought the question only referred to games that have already been played. If you include games that have yet to be played, Friday could be a letdown, and MSG hasn’t been kind to us in years past. Friday is that special jersey patch, thing, so there’s a little bit of additional motivation there, I’d think.

by gotsparkly on Feb 3, 2010 9:02 AM EST up reply actions  

Plus it’s possible that Holtby could get a start. Theo had a 41-save game last night, tomorrow MSG. It would be logical to let Braden take the second game of the back-to-back so Theo can be fresh for the Pens.

Also, Neuvy is banged up. (Unless they’re gonna recall him for the Friday game, and just didn’t want him playing in Norfolk/worried about travel issues with the snow we’re about to get.)

Sorry, I can’t see Twitter at work – what does it say?

I’d kind of like to see Holtby get a start, and Holtby’s first NHL start would be a shot of motivation for the team as well.

Unless he loses.. then he’ll forever have the stigma of being THAT GOALIE that blew the winning stream during his first NHL game.

Not that we caps fans would care THAT much because ya gotta lose some times, but I don’t know how that would play with his confidence level.

If someone had to hold the burden of ending the streak, I’d rather Jose have to carry that load. He can take it and we wouldn’t think any less of him.

You know what? For my lights, we’ve got the franchise record now. Okay, so it’s a cool winning streak. I’m not even worried about it now that we have the franchise record. I’d rather take that risk and see what Holtby can do.

He’s in such a groove, I doubt he wants to ever come out. And because of Bruce’s goalie rotations, Theo’s only played in 31 games this season so he shouyd hardly be worn out. Also, don’t forget, he’s got a two week break coming up. I say play him until Varly is ready to come back. I’d be shocked to see Holtby get a start if the streak is intact.

by b.orr4 on Feb 3, 2010 10:36 AM EST up reply actions  

He doesn’t historically do well playing both games of a back-to-back, though. Maybe you’re right – I can see Bruce trying it, but I’d like to see Holtby get a start.

“On paper,” the Pittsburgh and Detroit games posed bigger challenges (Pittsburgh has tons more skill that NYR, and Detroit still knows how to cobble together wins).

“In game,” I thought the Phoenix and Anaheim games were tougher than this one should be, because those teams played a station-to-station game and didn’t let the Caps get off and running.

The Rangers play a game for which they lack enough skill. They do try to play with tempo. But if no one other than Marian Gaborik is scoring, and if Henrik Lundqvist isn’t strong in his second game back after a bout with the flu, the Rangers should not be competitive. If the Caps get off early, it could get really ugly, really quick for the Rangers in their first game back home with their “new look.”

Sell. As noted, the Rangers will be playing their first game back east after a three game west coast trip. That’s never easy on the home team.

Toughest test so far? Last night in Boston to break the record against a team desperate for a win in a building we haven’t had much luck in.

Tougher test will be Friday against Atlanta. The Thrashers are off until the game on Friday, will be waiting here in D.C. while the Caps are in N.Y., crowd on Friday could be sparse because of the impending doom, and Pittsburgh at home on Sunday on the horizon.

Detroit is somewhat living on their former reputation. Anaheim had played an OT game the night before. Pittsburgh was in a somewhat simliar situation, recovering from a west coast trip but they had hosted the Islanders before us. However, both teams were missing key players.

At Glory Days, you get 10-12 wings free, depending on location and you have a week to claim. Their sauces include “Glory Sauce” which is honey and hot sauce, basically, a BBQ, mild, medium, hot, and some crappy old bay sauce.

This is for several people.

It’s okay. Glory Days wings are really good – I get the Old Bay, the Tangy Asian, or the zesty orange, though those do have a kick to them and I usually dip those in blue cheese to cut the spice.
