nah nah nah. I’m ok with this in a lockout season. were this a real season, i’d complain. Beagle didn’t play any during the break, i think crabb was up in alaska. ovi needs to get used to NHL speed again.

Ovi must explode and show that he still has scoring touch regardless of what and where he is playing. After watching him playing in KHL through Internet it is surprising and very disappointing to see him (and Backstrom) coming empty in every game. If he will not start scoring very soon, starting tomorrow, you can write off Caps in this shorten season. Without his goals Caps don’t have any chances. They already 5 points behind Tampa. If it’ll become 7-8 point gap they will never catch them or others, considering that on best case scenario teams can shave maximum 2 points in every 10-game segments.

The direction of their nose decides on which wing they play?

…. And the slide continues for Ovi. Much like it has ever since I bought his jersey (before the ’10-11 season)

And the award for least-crooked nose goes to: Jay Beagle!
