I think that game in St.Louis was the start of it all. Go back and watch that game and you will see alot of bad habits.

I think the Caps were lucky in that game. Not to say I enjoyed the 8 game skid, But if there was 1 game I like to point to, It’s that win in St.Louis.

Yeah, real life is not a fairy tale.
But good fiction has some real life logic behind it:

Fairy tales have good endings to grow up children with positive thinking.
And positive thinking gives confidence. And confidence makes the difference between hitting the post and scoring. So, our positive thinking (comments, blogs etc) will give more confidence to Caps and will lead to a good ending

“I know the ending, good ogres win at the end of the day ”

That’s what we like to think … and that’s how all good fiction from the great myths on up to contemporary film making plays out. Real life often has a different script for us. So we must be patient and faithful … like the good Red Sox fan that I am

Just wanted to say thanks for a great and professional job you did during the dark times.
Actually it is not over yet. This game was just a replay of the game against Boston, but without unlucky bounces and Tim Thomas.
So, don’t relax, continue the pushing.
The next guys owe us a 5-0 shutout and then come games against Pensburg, that are really must wins and that will set the pace till spring.

Is it just my feeling, or Ovi and Sid remind me of some characters like Shrek and Mr. Charming?
I know the ending, good ogres win at the end of the day
