Well, @DaveP043, my stint as "Caps fan for 150 minutes" has ended. Successfully, I might add.

Go Pens!

I guess it's the 10-year anniversary of this:

 

I remember that game.  I had a noise violation in my mailbox the morning after that one from my condo board.  

 

Also, great run by the Blue Jackets.  16-0 is phenomenal.

LOL, when I mentioned in the other thread that it was almost dinner and hockey time, you know which game I was watching.  Probably one of the best overall efforts by the Caps so far this year.

Being close by us, my bruv and I were rooting for the CBJ, but I agree that the Caps looked very good last night. CBJ wasn't flat, but Washington was that much better.

I'll be interested to see what kind of effort the Blue Jackets put together for NYR on Saturday night.

They were all over the Rangers for most of the first 2 periods and led at one point 4-1. The Rangers woke up and scored 3 third period goals including the game winner with under a minute to go.

Mixed results for the CBJ lately. ... Beat the Flyers Sunday, but not so good against Carolina last night. It's a marathon. Not a sprint.

I only saw a period or so last night, but it looked like nobody showed up down south. Only 9,531 officially. Seems like ages ago when the Canes won the Cup.

Of course my Habs decided to get battered against the Caps on Monday. Made it a lot easier to flip over to the football game my bruv wanted to watch.

Yeah, all of a sudden the Caps are playing pretty well.  Pretty complete efforts against CBJ, Montreal, and last night against Pittsburgh, sandwiched around a kinda dull 1-0 snoozer against the Senators.  I hope they get on a run of good play like this in April and May, but that's a long time away.

^^^This would be nice, but just like with my Dolphin's, the Cap's get me excited and then quickly frustrate the crap out of me because they bring the wrong team to the important games.

Habs offense has not been in evidence for either these past two games against Detroit and Pittsburgh. When you don't have much in the way of top line talent, it requires more effort than that. Glad the Pens game wasn't available on tv locally. I was probably happier at the gym.

You would have been, yeah. It was the best Pens road game of the year (they've not been good on the road) and the first complete game that resembled their playoff run last year.

Which is interesting with Cullen, Letang, Kuhnackl, and Dumoulin out.

Judging by Saturday's debacle at the Bell Centre by my guys, the Habs offense is just fine. EIther that or the Rangers are skidding, probably a combo of both. Fun place to watch a game tho. Everyone up there is really into the action

This is older, and Sid's not the only player who can do these things by any stretch, but it's worth watching.

There are others out there as well. They're all pretty good.

I'm getting sick of the "stick up for your teammates" thing going too far. Hockey is a tough, fast game and sometimes hard hits happen. Stopping the game because your teammate got rocked on a clean hit is stupid.

I'm getting tired of not-so-clean hits being unpunished, too.

Like, say…

Nada.

Ward got a two-minute roughing call there didn't he? Or maybe I'm on the wrong game. 

Supposing it's the same one, if his skaters had simply done their job and cleared the crease, it would have never happened. Really Ward should have punched his own players in the face.

It's an automatic game misconduct and a suspension.

Punching someone is a game misconduct and a suspension? In the NHL? Not yet it isn't.

I understand you don't like it, but 2 minutes is pretty consistent with how they called that sort of thing for years.

    • Day 126 - 2025-02-03 30 balls or so. A few at 185 yards. Most at about 160-165 (6I). Path was outward on all of them.
    • Day 13 (3 Feb 25) - long day with son’s ortho appt 2-1/2 hrs from home….got home this evening and wanted to get some time in, opted to roll some balls with Millie (the Odyssey AI One Seven T DB (way too long name)).  Started with lag putts to about 15’ (the max I can roll in the bedroom on carpet), trying to finish to within 2’ of the target cup (14 of 17); second drill used the putter cover as a “target cup” - set up balls (groups of 3) at varied distances from 4’ up to 8’ - hit the cover solid (make the putt), miss well it’s a missed putt (made 9, missed 8); last drill - stack the ladder - rolled the first to about 14’, then made successively shorter rolls trying gap anywhere 10-20”.  Had about 6 that lightly kissed the previous ball, but no rolls past….fun mix of work on distance control with the ol’ flat stick.
    • Agreed on the PT. Unlikely you have a serious injury. Most likely it's just from being tight/out of shape and then doing something athletic. Been there a million times, trust me. PT, light gym work 40 minutes a day really adds up over time. Plus I couldn't do what I do without the aid of my massage gun.  Dry needling can help unlock a lot of this as well, so don't forget about this option for some point down the road.   PS- For the last few years I've seen a DPT twice a week. It's expensive, but I've learned a few things: one of them is his mobilizations of tight areas around my back and pelvis has really helped. Seeing an actual therapist regularly for a few months is a big time advantage. Our bodies are like cars in that we do need to maintain them to a certain extent X amount of the time. I know you know all this already, I'm just reiterating stuff. Hope you're feeling better soon!
    • So, I haven't quit ...just taking a little winter siesta. I have been doing some Stack training and a little office carpet putting with the Pelz Putting Tutor. I'll see where I am in another 6 weeks or so and then maybe look for some instruction.   
    • I think it is probably my lack of motivation to work out the past 8 months. I could tell it was starting to act up a bit. Like, one day I was getting some micro-spasms. Bowling just tipped it over the edge.  Its not the worst it has been. Moving around helps out. I just need to do some PT.
