Not that F16 has mattered much in a couple weeks (I'm guessing he was hurt before to tonite), but our 3rd line is in BIG trouble. 25 sucks. 85 is a munchkin (with heart but still...). And now, what, you add in 17? Ugh!
Ward. Then let Wolski and Volpatti compete for the open 4th line spot.
If Fehr is IR-bound, they really need to see what Mitchell (or another Hershey prospect with at least the potential for a future here) can offer. Give someone like that a chance to make an impression in an energy role instead of some waiver-wire fodder that won't be here in 3 months.
What's up with Mark "cutback" Davis, Bob "jungle death" Garrard, and Alex "toe drag" Ovechkin?
I am surprised he didn't try a toe drag in the shootout.
I don't mind the move tried, but he sure did try a lot of toe drags in the 3rd. I don't think I have ever seen a player try it more in one period.
But some of his fancy moves were working last game. I was surprised that it was actually working. Working to the extent that he didn't lose the puck right away. Which is much better than what it has been. I think one of these days Ovi is going to score one of those super highlight reel goals.

Didn't Fehr also have a back problem at some point?
The best part of this IMO is that he is regaining the confidence to try all that wacky stuff. Oates and his system appear to have really rejuvenated him.
If he's on the bike, it's not a back thing. Gotta be arm/hand related.

I said it before when all hope was gone from most of you that the caps will make the playoffs and I Still know they will

King,
I think it was me who said we'd make the playoffs... and we may.
So what?
We screwed up AO's prime years, and worse, the easy SE years.
And the latter may be worse than the former.
