Pertinent matter here — what does the league do if the Pens can’t get to DC? Personally, if the game got rescheduled, I wouldn’t have to worry about the snow, but the obstacles to be hurdled are headache-inducing.

I feel they’d have to forfeit.

I don’t wanna win that way.

I mean, I’m sick and tired of us rescheduling games for them. It’s getting old. Weather’s one thing I shouldn’t complain about, I guess, though.

They’ll reschedule. Consider what happened when the lights went out in The Rock earlier this season – they ended up rescheduling the rest of the game.

I’m not too worried. Remember the last snowstorm we had? Metro DC is better at clearing than they have been in years past, and the roads were drivable by Sunday morning. (I know, I was out in it :))

Hell, I-68 was completely clear. I got through Morgantown at around 1:30 and there was nothing remotely on the road the entire trip from there.

This Just In ... In the Event of Sunday's Pens-Caps Tilt Being Postponed

Verizon Wireless, NBC and ~~Gary Bettman’s Evil Empire~~ the NHL have heard the lamentations of several Rinkers:

Kerry Fraser’s Hairspray’s request …

Can’t they just play on the Tarmac at Dulles?

UF’s request

Beat me to it! Damn you … I was thinking the Pens somehow land and get stuck at Dulles. Then we get our very own live Verizon Wireless sponsored impromptu game of shinny out there.

And GotSparkly’s affirmation on the opposing player’s enthusiasm

And don’t think that both teams won’t do it in half a heartbeat :)

With that said Verizon Wireless Has Agreed to Sponsor a MakeUp Game On Tarmac of Dulles Effectively Immediately.

I kid. But how awesome would that be? Dreaming away here …

Fortunately, I have plenty of hot cocoa to drink out of my OFB mug.

Capital Weather Gang has updated their predictions.

I’m done with snow. I’m going to aruba, call me when it’s spring.
