Great play by Carlson on the 3x1

Caps are making a lot of hay on the power-play. No goals tho.

2 1 10

Brandon Alter @brandonalter.bsky.social · 6h

Ovechkin doesn’t get the full 2:00 on the power play. Interesting.

Brandon Alter @brandonalter.bsky.social · 6h

BTW, my prediction for the Caps: Not as good as last year, still make the playoffs. Lose in R2.

Brandon Alter @brandonalter.bsky.social · 6h

Bathrooms are already out of water though. At least the one I used.

We are so back

I wonder how much the condescend schedule will play into this. My expectation is Thompson will get roughly every 3 out of 4 games. However, I think he’ll also ride the hot hand if there is one.

Bailey Johnson @baileyannej.bsky.social · 14h

Logan Thompson will be the starter for the Caps tonight against the Bruins. I would expect the goalie usage to be much less of a straight rotation this year, but the Caps don’t want Lindgren to sit on the shelf for too long, either.
From Spencer Carbery this morning:

Shouldn’t the Bills be running away with this game?

NOT a meaningless touchdown from Deebo

Game ops just has a list of “crowd make noise” songs and that’s what they chose.

I’ll be here next week! But yeah this is a KILLER. Only way I see it coming back is if they pull off the upset vs Indiana. Program momentum killer.

Brandon Alter @brandonalter.bsky.social · 4d

Sure, but the rest of us can enjoy it!

They literally played “it’s a party” after blowing the lead.

Caps start Wednesday!

It’s a party*

Brandon Alter @brandonalter.bsky.social · 4d

Maryland game ops playing “it’s party” after blowing a 20-3 lead is a choice.

Ready to be the only one in the stands next week! Might need to increase the alcohol next week though.

Alex Kirshner @alexkirshner.com · 4d

When this game ends, Maryland is either going to be in the best spot it's been in since roughly 2011, or nobody is ever going to show up for a Maryland game ever again

How is that not roughing the kicker????

Sidney Stewart for Heisman with the way Maryland’s defense has played in the second half.
