The Boys Are Back In Town

So tonight the Caps whipped up on the Sens, and the boys are back in town, also known as Mike Green, Sergei Federov and Alexander Semin. Sergei Federov had 3 points and Mike Green had 3 points. The aggressive plays by both the defense and offense were impressive. However, lets discuss the less than impressive officiating by the wonderful NHL refs. The missed 2 obvious tripping calls, both on Mike Green, and called a weak hooking call on Giroux. Lets be real here, that was Bull Shit!!! I mean come on refs, open up your damn eyes because your missing a good game! Get off your knees, your blowing the game for god sakes. Ottawa you played like crap, and Ottawa fans, do not even try to use the officiating as the reason you lost because the calls were swinging your way all game! I felt like I was watching game 7 of the Caps vs Flyers all over again. Either way, even with the crappy calls the Caps still scored 5 goals, and Bent Johnson only gave up 1 goal. He deserved the shut out and it was a lack of defense on the play that allowed the goal, not his goaltending.Greeny looks great, and has his step back. Ovie is finally getting momentum, and Federov, well it's Federov, need I say more. Semin is the Russian Machine Sidekick. Hello Boys!!! Guess what ladies and gents, the boys are back in town and they are ready to rock the red. Is it in you?

Shark Attack

San Jose sharks are dominating the NHL this year. I am currently watching them kick the ducks in the tail feather. Way to come out of know where San Jose. So far they have only lost 5 games this year, which is incredible, and the only game they lost at home was in OT. Can you say stanley cup contenders. I think the NHL is under Shark Attack!!!

He's Bacccckkkkkkkk

I was so excited watching the Caps game last night, because unexpectedly I saw #28, Alexander Semin take the ice. Semin had been out because of an upper torso injury. Prior to his injury, he was leading the league in points. He was an asset that the Capitals were missing greatly. No we need Green and Federov to return and all will be well with the Capitals franchise. Just for the side note, we beat boston 3 to 1 :-) C-A-P-S CAPS CAPS CAPS....Give me a Hell...Give me a YEAAAAAA....Stand Up Right Now!!

You Think You Know...But You Have No Idea

Ok, so someone tell me what is it with girls, and them trying to act like they know a single thing about hockey, or sports in general. Yes, I know, I am a girl, I am well aware everytime I try to look at my feet and see mounds instead, but it does not mean I have to like or evenr respect other girls. I was watching hockey tonight, and these girls are talking about the game like they actually knew whats going on. First off, let me start by saying hockey is not a sport you can learn. You can learn the game and rules, adn you can study stats, but if you haven't been raised with hockey, you will never have the knowledge that some fans possess. Hockey is like a religion. Most fans grew up loving the sport, and skated at some point in their life. They probably would pick hockey over any sport on any given day, I know I would. Anyway back to my point, why do girls decide when they hit their 20's that being a sports chick or into sports is "cool." Your true sports girls have been involved in sports their whole live, and no playing 4 or 5 years of a sport does not count. When you hit double digits then come talk to me. To top it off these girls usually are the ones who made fun of the tom boys or sports chick in yester year and now you think you know a thing or two. As I sat and watched the game I could hear girls yelling "what are you doing, you can't do that," to the Bruin who laid a hit on a Cap. Guess what ladies, he can do that. Stop yelling offsides when the puck passes 2 red lines, the refs arm is up for an icing call. When they say light the lamp, it does not mean hit somebody, it means they scored a goal! If I hear one more girl in stilletos with a pound of make up on her face tell me shes a hockey fan, and then tell me she is excited for the playoffs coming up, I might spill me beer all over her. The playoffs coming up are for football not for Hockey!!!!!! So for my girls out there and my boys, who know what im talking about give me an Amen. To all you girls who think you know....guess what? You have no idea!

For your viewing pleasure...

Tyler Sloans hit on Langkow. Never skate with your head down.

Stop, Oh, Back it up, and Let me see your hips SWING

The season is in full swing, and many teams are in the playoff hunt. Play offs are months away, but many teams that are in the same division have extremely close records this year. In the Atlantic division, the Penguins only trail the Rangers by 4 pts, which is 2 games (assuming, Rangers lose 2 and Pens win 2 without going into overtime). The Bruins trail the Canadiens by 5 points in the Northeast. In the Southeast, the Hurricanes trail the Capitals 4 points. Over in the Western Conference, the Blackhawks trail the Wings by 9 points in the Central division, and in the Northwest, the Flames trail the Canucks by only 2 points. The only division that does not have a close race is the Pacific division and the Ducks trail the Sharks by 13 points. San Jose had dominated the NHL this year. San Jose is 14-0-2 at home, which is incredible!
Now, lets talk about some of the best hits of this season so far. I am gonna start off with my personal favorite since we all know I am a Caps fan. Tyler Sloan, #89 made is debut with the Capitals when they played the Sens in Ottawa, Sloan, in his first game, laid out Langkow. It literally looked like Langkow hit a Mack Truck. Another awesome hit was Letang of the Penguins hit on White of the Thrashers. He was seeing stars, or penguins, for sure. Lets look at Richards from the flyers hit on Schubert of Ottawa. Hopefully the impact of his head on the crossbar taught him that just because you have the puck in front of the net does not mean your going down. Those are just a few of the awesome hitting we've seen in the league this year. So boys just stop, oh, back it up and let me see your hips swing!

So I am a little late...

Ok so hockey season has been going on for months now, and I am just getting back to writing. Im stupid and forgot my password. So I am gonna jump right into it. HELLO WASHINGTON CAPITALS. Lets talk about how the Caps are twelve men deep into their AHL farm team roster and are still playing their hearts out, and are still first in the division. Mike Green not being defense is starting to hurt us but what can you do. Brashear is not fighting enough, and I would like to see more face pounding and ass kicking, if thats not too much trouble. These young Hershey Bears are really proving themselves. They are brought up through the system, thrown into the major leagues and still holding their own. Props to you boys aka Lepisto, Alzner, Collins, Sloan, Helmer, Aucion, etc. Get it together boys, get healthy, we still got over half a season to go!!!
