Where is WSH/NSH GDT?

It's there.

If you don't see it, it's because you have the thread starter on block list.

The record will take care of itself - go get two points after that dismal performance last night Caps!

Gotta give a lotta credit to Carbery -- first for having the balls to change things up, not letting Ovi do the same ole same ole, then for installing an approach that focuses on the player Ovi is now. He doesn't have the wheels anymore and he's heavier on his feet, but the howitzer it still there and his instincts and hockey smarts are sharper than ever. So let's jettison the bygone stuff and leverage the hell outta what's still there.

Reminds me so much of Duke's speech preceding Rocky 6's training montage...

 

[BallardEra]

33 goals in his last 50 games.

What when/if AO breaks the record he does the infamous fire stick celebration....I'm just giggling thinking of the outraged Canadien sports hockey media.

Don't look now but Ovi is one goal off the NHL lead. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss!

Killed off the api access to my long time 3rd party twitter app with no f***s given. Needed some retaliation.

 

[BallardEra]

From NHL.com:

"Capitals forward Alex Ovechkin (10 goals, 10 assists in 16 games) had an assist to join Gordie Howe (six goals, 18 assists in 1968-69) as the second player 39 or older to record 20 points through the first 16 games of a season."

If I wanted Ovechkins jersey signed whats the best way to do it? Are there going to be any Caps fan events where he might potentially meet fans this year?

I'm not a Caps fan but I do like Ovechkin and a friend of mine lives in the City so he might be able to get one for me

 

[BallardEra]

He has 36 goals in his last 53 games played which is a 56 goal pace over 82 games.

He needs 29 goals with 65 games left which is a 37 goal pace over 82 games.

What a player. What a career.

You've got Matthews sidelined and Bedard is struggling mightily to make an impact. #8 just keeps on ticking.
