My kids giggle every time Joe B says, “sprawling Beagle” and I have to admit that I do now too.

I would also like to know if Hunter knew about Beagle’s injury. You know the guy is going to want to be out there, even if he’s hurt, but I would assume the coach would know better than to sent him out in that situation if he actually knew Beags was hurting. Nobody knew he broke it at the time, but it should have been apparent that he was wounded….And Hendricks was every bit as good in the circle those last three games, so you think he could have handled faceoffs for the final 16 or 17 seconds.

I wore a pair of Beagle’s One90 skates for 2 years that I got for a discount price from the Bears when he just joined the team. Perfect fit! Been a fan of his ever since. Can’t think of a better reason to start following somebody’s career. It’s not easy finding Bauer skates in 1/4 sizes.

His season was OK until critical game 5 with Rangers.
The question everybody should ask why Hunter decided to send him on ice 30 sec before the end of the game to take faceoffs and protect Caps 2:1 lead? As we found out from exit interviews, Beagle had already broken foot from the start of second period and by his words was useless after 15-20 sec of skating or whatever you calling it. We all know what happened then, lost faceoffs, double-minor by Ward, who might was in a rush to save Beagle, and game tying goal by Rangers 7 sec before the end, when they played practically 6 on 3, Caps lost game and eventually the series, bitter end of season. I would like to know whether DH knew about Beagle’ injury or it was just dumb decision by him to send his trusted foot solder, even crippled one. Game 6, that should be the Rangers elimination one, showed that Caps were fine even w/o #83 on ice.

How about a timber wolf?

The puck comes
on little cat feet.
It sits looking
at the space in the twine
silently sliding
as it moves in.

I was at the March 6th Carolina game where Beagle got his first goal of the season and they played the Snoopy piece on the Tron.

I don’t know, cats can be kind of relentless when there is something they are after. It can be a twistie tie they found on the kitchen floor or a mouse they are trying to catch or another cat they are just trying to annoy. While there still might be better animals out there, I can accept cat for Beagle.
