What this game needs is a little more Ty Conklin.

That's what's all over Twitter. Even NBC was confused why there was no handshakes. I have absolutely no doubt now that it was no mistake that Crosby didn't shake Nick's hand (yeah, yeah, call me out for bringing that up again two years later, whatever). Good job marketing the game, Crybaby.

Happy New Year! January's featured players are defensemen Niklas Kronwall and Reed Larson: Widescreen: 1920x1200 | 1680x1050 | 1440x900 | 1280x800 4:3 & 5:4: 1600x1200 | 1400x1050 | 1280x960 | 1280x1024 | 1024x768 Enjoy!

ffffuuu--- Couldn't they do this a day or two earlier?

You're not. This is a good hockey game. Anyone who says otherwise is just butt hurt because the Pens are playing in it.

Penguins? Getting a goal waived off? What world am I in?

Capitals jersey = awesome Penguins jersey = toilet

You know I am getting a little tired of Babcock cutting Jimmy Howard all the slack in the world. No, the loss was not per say all Howard's fault, but the job of a goalie is to stop a puck, even during times when the team defense is not at its best. Obviously goalies are not going to be perfect when the defense is weak, but Howard is just letting in too many goals the past month and a half or so; it seems to be a trend for him to let in 4 goals these days. My problem is that Ozzy has been looking REALLY solid in net, but then gets the bench for Howard, who is playing average at best. I see that Howard is getting the nod again tomorrow against Philly which makes me mad because I think Ozzy deserves some games here. All biased aside, I know there are Ozzy fans and Howie fans, but I think Babs should be rotating them and, as the year progresses, give the better goalie more starts, and then use that to determine the goalie for the playoffs. At this rate, I feel every time the other team shoots it is going to go in on Howie (that is what I felt with Ozzy last year) so unless Howie starts outperforming Ozzy, Id say he should be the go to guy somewhere down the line

good thing we still have one Czech, or else, no funny. Still the best Red Wings commercial, ever:

DONKEY!

How the wind blows can (note CAN, not that it always does) have a huge effect on the play. Ask your kids what it's like with the wind blowing in your face as opposed to your back. Switching (or having the option of switching) just makes it more fair in games where there are elements such as wind, blowing snow, or rain. However, it's just outdoor games, so it's not a big deal. Congrats, Caps. Nice watching the game with you folks. I'm off to work.

sid crying cause he lost :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

Wait, he was behind the net. I don't see why that was waived off, he bumped into him

No, if I remember right they did switch during a period because of the wind.

Then stop watching it. Your constant bitching is getting old.

I hear that Crosby hurt himself diving? I lol'd. Did he splash?

This has probably already been said, but they are really overdoing these overhead camera angles. Stick to the basics.

Strange, Chicago isn't involved in this year's classic.

off topic - but bored today and inspired by Stolberg's Murph club mix I made a little something for Dats. enjoy(or don't)! http://picosong.com/PK5/

i thought anaheim already reached their dick quota.
