Let's see what happens when the flyers come into our house.. Oct 27th.

Not that I'm happy with the loss it but I'm actually quite pleased with how well they were able to do with virtually 20 PIM due to minors (I think it was 25 if you included the Bradly fight) against a team like the Flyers, plus if this type of stuff was going to happen I would rather it happen now then come playoff time.

Still a little nervous about our Goalie situation as I'm sure the whole fan base that follows it is. Damn ESPN putting us atop the Power Rankings, way to jinx us espen.

Semin is awesome though, I really hope we can lock him up to a long term contract.

Semin is out of this world. His greatness is overshadowed by Ovie, but make no mistake, he's phenomenal.

I'm also concerned about the goalie situation. Our D isn't helping us much either. Frankly I'm a bit tired of hearing what a great defenseman Mike Green is. He's great at scoring when compared to other defenders, but he's been asleep since late last season.

allllrighty....

Rangers at Capitals - 10/08/2009 - NHL.com - Game Previews

Another big test, but this time on our ice. I'm going to Chinatown for some pre-game drinks, and then I'll be one of the 18,277 strong in attendance @ the phone booth.

Rock the Red. Last Caps game I went to was game 1 of the playoffs vs. the Rangers, and a giant brawl ensued after the game. Lets hope Rangers fans can be a little more civil this time, because the poor souls that started the brawl were taken over by the red army.

Hard to get pumped up for the 4th game of the season, but the way ovi and co are playing its hard not to enjoy it.
