Hockey is back! After a summer of tragedy, it's time to drop the puck!

Who's the Cup favorite? Who made the best off season moves? When will Crosby return? When will Doughty sign?


And to start off the season, Mike Modano officially retired yesterday.

God dammit.

I had a bad feeling coming into this game, and I see I was right.

Have the Caps won a game in the playoffs yet where they didn't score first?

FARK

Now we'll have to win in NY - IF we can win at home on Wed. DAMMIT! I was just starting to hope...

I am stunned.

I still think the series goes to 7 games, but last night really took a lot out of the Caps. And no, I'm not pointing fingers at anybody. Yes, Joel Ward got a double minor that led to the tying then GWG in OT. Yet the rest of the team played like absolute crap.

I didn't get mad, I didn't throw stuff at my TV. I merely closed my laptop lid, turned on my Xbox, and played some MW3 until I was exhausted.

As I have on my white board at work: TO Cup: 10. To Golf: 1.

It's not farking over, but whatever happens I'm not pointing fingers at any one player, coach, or decision.

I'll be rooting for whomever wins the West IF the Caps get eliminated.

I am rooting for the Caps in the East out of the teams left. I would like to see a Caps-Kings finals.

Could the Flyers legally replace Bryzgalov with a cardboard cutout, and skate an extra man?
