    Brutal last 30 minutes of the game tonight. Carlson was dreadful on defense on 2 of the first 3 goals. But what’s really frustrating is it looked like they had figured out how to counter what the hurricanes were doing, only to stop doing it and let the hurricanes retake control of the game.

    Much better game tonight. It started similar to the other night, but the Caps really picked up the tempo and played Capitals hockey. Just a few hiccups in the 3rd, but otherwise a great rebound game. Wilson was all over the ice tonight, so I’m glad he got the empty netter.

    Terrible game tonight. The Caps looked like they were sleepwalking with the puck most of the game. Thompson was fantastic all night, but Carolina’s game plan of throwing pucks to the net is what works in OT. That goal barely squeaks under the pad, but the Caps were just hoping for a lucky bounce...

    Six Flags America Closing in 2025

    It was Wild World for the 80s and early 90s. 1994 they opened as Adventure World a little after it was sold to a new company. I was working there in 93 and 94 and it was Wild World in 93 and Adventure World in 94. Then in 1999, it was rebranded as Six Flags about a year after they took over. The...

    Washington DC to host NFL draft in 2027

    I have wanted to go to a draft, but seeing the crowds the last couple of years, I don’t think I have the patience to do so. If it was indoors with assigned seats, that may be one thing. But too many bad experiences growing up with 4th of July fireworks index and I doubt crowds have gotten better...

    It would have started Sunday if the Blues and Jets didn’t have game 7 today. I don’t know about conflicts at Capital One arena, but while trying to find when the games would be scheduled, I stumbled across a hurricanes thread and in Raleigh, they have concerts Friday and Sunday. So the series...

    Orioles Magic!

    Yeah, the GM is really screwing up the opportunity they have. Let’s face it, some of these guys won’t re-sign when they hit free agency. If the owner really does want to spend as he said when he bought the team, this past offseason was the time to be aggressive. Instead he sat on his hands...

    Six Flags America Closing in 2025

    Yeah, Kings Dominion and Busch Gardens were always better as kids because of what they offered. It was just they were hours away instead of minutes. So a trip there was special. They had more roller coasters and thrill rides. Wild World was almost exclusively a water park in the early 80s before...

    Six Flags America Closing in 2025

    I wanted to start a thread on this. Six Flags America in Bowie will be closing after this season. I know for me and my family, this park was a big part of our childhood and teenage years. We lived just a mile away and we would go every day in the summer when it was Wild World and mostly a water...

    Great win tonight. The Caps dominated the 5 on 5 tonight. The Canadiens didn't really have that many scoring chances outside of the power play. The defense just made it so hard for them. Also, the Caps avoided the bad passes and turnovers they were committing a lot of on Friday. Now just win...

    C-A-P-S

    Yeah, the refs sucked for sure. A lot of bad calls and letting the Candeiens get away with stuff after the whistle. But the worst to me was the TVR interference. The Canadiens player stuck his leg out to trip TVR yet he gets called for interference. But Montreal still deserved to win last night...

    Rough game yesterday. Montreal took it to them. The Caps need to come out and be the aggressor again like they were in game one. Montreal showed it was willing to go that route last night. Time to step it up again.

    Commanders 2025 Picks

    I don’t think you can ever go wrong beefing up the line. I also didn’t think they would address OT early, but I will never complain when they take an OL. That position was ignored in the draft for years by previous coaches and GMs. This front office is protecting their most important asset.

    Good win tonight. I’m glad they didn’t hang back for the last half of the third like game 1. Montreal still had pressure, but the Caps also had chances and were able to keep Montreal from scoring. Now win game 3.

    Great finish tonight. They really turtled the last half of the 3rd period to lose that lead. I’m glad that they came out in OT with the same fire they had the first 50 minutes. Vintage Ovechkin tonight. Two goals and an assist. He was also more physical than I’ve seen him in while. He led all...

    Whatever Happened to...

    While there isn’t a specific member, I always wonder what happened to some of the people who left because of all the shenanigans of the last owner. A lot of us threatened to leave, some followed through. I wonder what they think and if there was any thought to return or do they just live life...

    Commanders News (Social Media)

    They took the prospects to Top Golf. Reportedly, the Daniels’ camp was not happy with that. But his official reps quickly said that was not the case. I think the season proved that to be true as well.
