Yes. That ship passed a few years ago, but Ovi still sells a lot of AOL trial CDs.

Been doing it for about 25-30 games not with exception of game or two. Playing all three zones Yet he makes a bad play on an offsides on the Grabner goal and he's whipping boy again along with his buddy Vesey.

hey hanrahan!
I’m going to assume you never had a 56k modem
would have been a disaster to lose this game with the Metro continuing its Bull rush. The atlantic is a joke.

When the St. Louis chokers came East to the Washington chokers and they choked together , it was the death knell for that Crapitals era in regard to a “new era
“ cup.Benoit Allaire is the #1 star of the game. #2 star Pavs was unbelievable tonight.
Kreider with the dreaded upper body injury, did anyone see him get hit?
I thought the whole team played well but especially the defense.
This was one of the better team games they have played.

Not sure if it happened on this play, but this was his last shift of today's game. He eventually ends up in the middle of the ice. You do see him get up a little funny but because he gets up so quickly you wouldn't think of anything at first. But I guess you never know...
Either way, hopefully he's alright. I would be sad if another player had to miss out on the Winter Classic

I posted this in the injury thread fwiw:
I slowed down an overhead and it looked like Orpik's shoulder/elbow hit Kreider up high and his neck twisted. It was after the end of the period when they showed the overhead. I think that's where it may have been. I don't know it's hard to tell.

I thought the dmen tonight were very good for the most part, especially getting the puck out of danger areas and moving it to the forwards. I hope they can do that against other teams. I thought the team played well, they were certainly a better team than the Caps.
As far as the forwards go Nash and Zucc were fantastic tonight. Honestly , I don't think any one player was crappy, it was a strong team game tonight.

We're CLEAN, we PROMISE!
Me not so. Had a colonoscopy today, so I was stinking it up twice as much as any Ranger......okay, JT is off the hook.
Grabner was really good, killing the Ovechkin Line was the best part yesterday..

Me too. I actually turned the game off.
I believe it’s a rule for international play, never adopted by the NHL.
Probably one of Holden’s best games as a Ranger.
Watching Ovi coast around the left dot with his stick parallel to the ice for 1:30 of PP time is just...
That’s a great captain.

Caps too top heavy.
too few players are relied upon for offense that when one or more of them start to slump, the team goes in a tailspin.
no depth
smith-pelley/beagle/wilson
all trash
Madison Bowey - who?
Chandler Stevenson - ditto
Andre Burakovsky - Flashy, but has a whopping 8 points
Alex Chaisson - Garbage

They lost a lot this offseason and gave Oshie a huge deal. It's amazing how both them and the Rangers have been as competitive as they've been. Rangers some of the younger guys have stepped it up and the goaltending has settled down and look to be improved from last year. Caps though, very very top heavy.
I think they expected Burakovsky to take the next step. He's been injured a lot the last two seasons. It's funny how Chaisson was rumored to sign here. Vrana is pretty good though.
They also have a blue line with two really old guys with Girardi level miles, and two young guys. Once the season gets into that post All Stat Break grind, I'm really curious how they handle it.
Pavelec has had three good starts in a row. He was exceptional in the Dallas game.
The Caps year was in 15-16 and 16-17. Pittsburgh won both years. That team is the ultimate mush team. They will never win. They had good teams with Carpenter,Gartner,Stevens,Langway,etc. They couldn’t out of the 2nd round in the 1980’s with solid teams. David Poile and Bryan Murray. Same story with this group.

I did but you conjured up an image of Ovi going door to door trying to offload his quota of trial AOL discs and trumpeting the space age scientific advances of Instant Messenger and electronic mail.
AV on Buchnevich “Butchie has been going up and down in the last three games,” Vigneault had said before the game. “If somebody is off, I’m not going to hesitate to make a switch and to do what we have to do to play a good game. Butchie has been a good player for us, and I know that he’s going to continue to be a good player for us.
It's nice to see Pavs playing well. He's always had talent in spades but I think working with Benny has helped. If he can play like this it will be huge down the stretch as Hank can get some rest. It's amazing how spoiled we've been with goaltending in the past decade-plus.
Many years ago when it was the MCI Center I had a friend who worked in the promotions department and I took my dad to a game. We set it up so he got to participate it one of those on-ice intermission races, where you have to put on shoulder pads, gloves, pick up a stick, score a goal, etc. He smoked his opponent who was my age, threw his stick up into the air, the whole nine yards. It was great. We were hoping for like a restaurant gift card or something. Instead, no shit, billionaire Ted Leonsis gave us a thank you letter and a disc for 1000 free hours of AOL. I was like, you gotta be f***ing kidding me, we get these in the mail every week. I guess you don't get to be rich by giving away a bunch of shit, but still, f*** that guy.

Agreed. I actually voted him one of my game stars. He was really involved and mobile but in the right place at the right time. Even some good offensive rushes. He’s certainly a good value for this team.

benny is a magician. they saw something in pavs for sure. i mean last year he was awful mostly. good on him. he played another strong game.
defensively, im liking this team. all of a sudden this team seems to be able to shut down top lines. its refreshing to see team defense. its not like washington is the coyotes. i mean they are legit albeit not as strong as years past.
