Viel Glück to my fellow countyman Phillip Grubauer who will make his playoff debut tonight !

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

Clutterbuck, 1-0 Isles.

Not having Holtby is gonna hurt. If the Caps aren't confident in Peters, why was he backup all season instead of Grubauer?

[jimmyemeryhunter 2,747]

That was a damn nice shot by clutterbuck.

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

Strome, 2-0 NYI.

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

Of course I miss the goals.

[jimmyemeryhunter 2,747]

Of course I miss the goals.

Ha

Ovi and backstrom are back together, so we should see more.

And there it is

3-3 tie.

Nice shot by backstrom

[jimmyemeryhunter 2,747]

4-3 caps

Clutterbuck, 1-0 Isles.

My theory is that they want him to play more games rather than watch them, and possibly want to keep Peters in the showroom window.

Terrific atmosphere in the Coliseum so far. I'll miss that as an arena, Barclay's center is so damn ugly for hockey.

[derblaueClaus 1,668]

That kind of energy would help us tremendously. I hope the Joe is as loud if not louder on Tuesday.

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

Good saves from Holtby has prevented a few would-be NYI goals here early on.

Boy that'd be nice.

[Jersey Wing 1,521]

Glencross for the Crapitals and Tavares for the Isles....or LaFontaine

Who could forget?

[Jersey Wing 1,521]

Tonight's winning pick four lottery number is 8549.

PERFECT, just in time for the Hawks and Preds

[matt198913 932]

15 seconds throw anything on the net

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

Well that was a quick overtime.

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

1-1 game midway through the 3rd in this one.

[55fan 5,133]

Caps hang on. Islanders are sad. I'm thinking this series will go to seven.

[IanRobertPatterson 3]

Backstrom is so clutch.

[kipwinger 8,524]

Dirty or not? I say no.

I also really like Tom Wilson.

[Son of a Wing 1,644]

Dirty or not? I say no.

I also really like Tom Wilson.

I didn't like the fact that he made no attempt to play the puck. Otherwise, clean for the most part.

As a defenceman, Visnovsky has to be more aware of the forcheck.
