Loving erat on the first line

Yep. Should've been done a long time ago.

 

[Raikkonen]

Very spectacular. Nabokov is weak. I would like to see more goals for.

Your avatar makes kittens cry.

 

[Carlzner]

I've been meaning to say this for awhile now, Urbom was a great pickup.

 

[PuckBuddy]

Can we call him "D'ohvechkin" when he plays like this?

And Doughvechkin when he shows up fat to camp.

 

[Calicaps]

a gazelle? really Joe B?

I swear if Backstrom just scored more goals people wouldn't even talk about Crosby, they'd talk about who's the better capital, he or Ovi.

One things for sure is Nick can assist his team mates just as good if not better than Crosby. In fact you have to give him more credit considering Crosby is almost always passing to an all star line mate.

Have you seen some of the assists crosby has made?

 

[Capitlols]

Damn they look good.

 

[Brian23]

This is probably the first time I've seen Nabakov look human against the Caps.

 

[tycoonheart]

Captain is on a mission.

Mojo has been great today.

 

[Langway]

Gotta say...Johansson's playing some damn fine hockey.

Obviously i didn't need to mention Ovi because it kind of obvious he's an all star. I was talking more in general of who Sid plays with. It's an offensive tour de force over there at times. Everyone knows how secondary scoring is a problem is with the caps when teams blanket Ovi with 3 guys knowing that nobody else can score with consistency.

 

[Calicaps]

money.

 

[PuckBuddy]

Cue the "Ov = PP specialist" thread on the main boards.

 

[DanTHEMan71]

I know eh

agreed. some tasty crow...

 

[Barry Amsterdam]

I don't even know where to begin to respond to this

 

[Ovechtrick89*]

Apart from speed, seriously what does sid have a big advantage over Nick? Their vision is almost identical and i guess if you want to be really picky you can slightly give the edge to sid but then you have to consider the great offensive players he plays with as opposed to Nick who pretty much can only rely on Ovi to hit the net the majority of the times.
