Also, I'd say Laich, Knuble, and a healthy Captain Cadaver are going to solve last year's issue of not crashing the net enough pretty nicely. I really liked what I saw from the Knuble-Ovechkin line in the pre-season. I just know they were talking about moving Knuble and Semin around different lines based on matchups this year, so I guess that's a possibility. No complaints from tonight though, obviously.
I agree, I meant "lesser" as in not available to play every game due to wear and tear or whatever, unlike someone like Laich, who never seems to take a day off.
this team may actually be too good. Ovie pots a goal 1:17 in, adds 2 apples, backstrom with a couple of assists, Knuble grinding out a tally, BMo adding one, and Brooks Laich with the dangles. On top of that I get 10 free wings because the Caps scored 5 (or more) goals. What a night and I didn't break any body parts this year
oh man. i forgot about emery. i hope we rape that punk. of course, i'd like emery to get beat up, but i don't think either theodore or varly can take him.
