a week off is alot

Season won't be over until July at this rate

 

[DWGie26]

It’s a grind, But championships are worth it!

 

[Strawberry Fields]

Gonna try and get tickets for game 2 if I still get a discount. Unfortunately I'm currently in a work position in which I can't have my phone at my workplace so I'll have to slink out for a bit to check (my current supervisor's a big Caps fan and we talk hockey a fair amount so I'm imagining it shouldn't be an issue)

(Tix go on sale tomorrow at 10 according to Fisch)

 

[VaCaps Fan]

Tempted to visit Hershey now.

Congrats to the Bears. From the parent Caps fan perspective there seemed a bit of a surprise on the off season moves maybe blocking caps prospects but atm don't believe that is the case.

 

[MFHOOD]

My damn internet went out right after period 2 ended so I didn't even get to watch the third. That don't stop the bears from SWEEPING though!

Building availability. It gets to be a pain in the ass since Giant Center gets booked up for so many different things. Graduations, concerts, Disney on Ice, Comedians, etc this time of year.

Got tickets for game 2

I was certainly of that opinion. But I agree with you… worked out well. Below is what the roster looked like in August. I had questions about Limoges (26), Roe (35), Dube (22), Huntington (25) and Osipov (?). I guess you could say it blocked Suzdalev (not ready) and Hofer but really they just weren’t ready. I suspect they will both have roles next year. But they will have to go deep again to account for some call-ups if injuries.

Watching Milwaukee vs Grand Rapids during the NHL intermission and the Admirals' play by play man is singing during the commercial break...

 

[Holtbyisms]

Got tickets for game 1 and 2. Tons left for games 6-7, gonna wait and see how the series goes before I buy them.

Ethen Frank and Logan Day practice with Hershey Bears after missing time due to injury

The Hershey Bears have been without several key players during spells of the 2024 Calder Cup Playoffs, but as they continue to…

Frank fully healthy, Day still wearing a non-contact jersey

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Phillips staying in the lineup?

Phillips staying in the lineup?

I’d say probably not. Roe played incredible and Frank has been dangerous all playoffs. Phillips has zero points so far and only had a single shot last game.

Blue Jackets put Brendan Gaunce on waivers to send him back down to Cleveland. He's their captain and probably second best forward. He's a pending UFA and it wouldn't really cost anything, Caps should claim him to block it.

Gaunce cleared.

One would think there's a decent chance they could also add Mateychuk for Game 3 after the Memorial Cup ends.

Funny to think about but almost certainly would've been an open invitation for Columbus (or someone else) to pluck one of Hershey's vets off waivers in the future. Or possibly given Cleveland some extra fire.

 

[hb12xchamps]

Was he hurt? If not, it reeks of desperation IMO. Columbus hasn’t played since the end of the regular season.

He was supposedly hurt.

I remember liking Gaunce as an option with the Wilson pick in 2012. Don’t think I’ve heard his name again since that draft.

[Ridley Simon]
