[StrikingDistance]

Caps face either a discombobulated team w/o their violent robot leader, or the Caps face a highly motivated team seeking to make a statement.

Their record w/o him is sub .500.

Ovie is due for another

Ovie is due for another

So is Connor McMike. Like, so far past due it's going to affect his credit score.

 

[ovikovy817]

Thank you NHL. No McDavid against us.

 

[Silky mitts]

It's like every story in hockey benefits the Caps, like when Oettinger signed his deal and sat out vs the Caps

 

[trick9]

I was hoping to see McDavid in but it is what it is.

Motion to rename the thread, "The Battle of the Connors... the real Connor McJesus vs Connor McDavid."

"It's a game, you know it's a passion obviously. I don't think he [meant] to do that," the Capitals captain said. "But sucks for him, good for us. He's not playing tonight, we'll take it."

There is only one Connor on the ice tonight. What are we going to do? Watch Connor just play with himself for 16mins and watch his shots go wide...of the net?

I doubt the general public would pay top dollar for such an event. Calicaps?...possible maybe.

CMM has been trash since he became a father. Hire a nanny dude.

Beyond relieved that we don't have to deal with Edmonton's resident goon tonight. Glad our boys should be able to get out of Alberta in one piece.

He was pretty solid for a couple of weeks after that, I thought. Seems likely he was enjoying the benefits of the Baby Swag boost, which has now worn off, and this is who he actually is.

This^

Its funny how closely we can track players big declines to recent first time parenthood. no sleep = shitty performance in pretty much any line of work. Also the overall distraction that having a newborn in your house can be. Looking back at the Caps season vs a baby chart would be informative as heck.

When I was a new Dad, I went to work one day and rode the elevator up to my floor. Then I stood there like a sleep deprived idiot as the door opened and closed and I unintentionally rode the elevator back down to the first floor before I realized what I had done.

“shootin for some food / A bubblin’ crude” is such an inspired line, don’t really make theme songs like that anymore

Bro’s probably only had 20 minutes of sleep since then LOL

“Violent Robot Leaders” was the title of a lost Devo record that later influenced Radiohead

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

This team can make you pay. They can’t be giving up some of the slot chances they have been of late to these dudes.

 

[RedRocking]

I hope Ovi scores 4 goals and then stares down Gretzky’s retired sweater (Roger Clemens style)

 

[DWGie26]

What if there was a private slack channel or forum that our customers employees had where they made a bunch of assumptions about us and criticized our every decision and execution?

Oh yeah… those definitely exist. Haha!

I always laugh when someone sends a screenshot. I don’t even try to defend it because their opinion is so far away from the truth but it’s just not worth arguing.

fortunately here, we are all right and know more than players, coaches, and GM’s. Damn we smart!

Prediction: At least one of the Oil's Skinners will score tonight.
