I hope Greenie is ok. We'll certainly need him flying all around the ice tonight. Game 7. Unbelievable!! Lets Go Caps

Hunter needs to be there tonight!!!

hope you got some sleep Tarik?!

Was sorta of interesting after the game last night. We were trying to figure out if the team would be spending the night in Philly or comming home and getting some rest. On the post game show Joe and Craig said that they boys would be flying home. Does anyne know if the Flyers traveled last night or this morning......just wondering.

Anyone know when the second round is scheduled to start? I'm a little concerned that if they manage to win tonight there won't be a whole lot of time to rest before making the trip up to Pittsburgh.

Green - you best not be costing the Caps the game trying to play hero... Schultz did the same thing a few games ago and lef the game leaving us with 5 d-men.

I'm all for Green playing - I just hope he is 100% or at least acts like it.

HolyOlie - my guess is that if they win tonight - they play in Pittsburg on Thursday night.

One game at a time though

I will not be attending tonight's game. I will be available tomorrow for comments from 1st tee at 0817am.

You gotta love the way Semin has played during this series. He finally unleashed the fury.

Yes, please ...

Let's help them get the win TONITE.
THEN we can all worry about the 2nd round.

They, again, have to battle like they did last night.

DO NOT give an inch!

Also that new 2nd line is becoming a beast!

Let's hope they can get another goal tonite!

I'm ready to ROCK THE RED!!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

@828
OOOOOOOOOO! Will you please, please use my Vengeance later ... Golf now idea?? I was telling my girlfriend about it last night and she LOVED it, but unfortunately, we won't be at the game tonight. You'd be scoring a fellow Caps fan MAJOR MAJOR points if you make that sign for me! ;-)

Please let me know if you decide to do it - your last sign was terrific!

I'm trying to get things done today, i swear to god, i'm trying.

I don't think the second round starts THAT soon. I don't think it starts as late as next week either, but Thursday sounds too soon. I'd guess Friday or Saturday.

828:
What about making what looks like a Flyers Vengence Now sign, but then crossing the Vengence out and putting Golf in with an arrow ... or putting Golf over it diagonally?

I like how the fans booed the Flyers at the end the game...It is final, Philly has the worst fans in all pro sports...
City of Brotherly Angst

Or as suggested on the Caps message boards: CRUSH ORANGE.

NoCountryForCapsFans... it's very possible that I use that idea - less words = less time to make.

I may tweak it though - just flip the words around...

Golf Now... Vengeance Later

@828

What is Vengence handicap? is halarious but NoCountryForCapsFans pulled at my heart strings a bit.......

I am contiplating making my own sign with my double secret witty quote......

Boo! - that is a good one... Jill - that is a good one too... so many decisions!

"Vengence Later, Boo Now"

Not you Boo, but the Booing type of Boo. Get me?

Next round - according to NBC, they are showing "Game 2" of the next round on both Saturday and Sunday afternoons. That means the first games are likely Thursday and Friday.

Lets get this one first!!

How bout I just make a blank sign and everytime you see some guy holding up a white sign - you use your imagination?

Come on, 828 ... we are all counting on YOU!! :-D Let me know if you need a note for your boss to leave early!! ;-)

from last thread

HuskyHockey: Capitol Q at 707 H is pretty good barbecue (go with the brisket) and they serve Shiner Bock which is lucky beer because I was drinking it for game 5.

What a joke,in order to get a "orange out" they had to give out t- shirts

Nothing BUT RED CAPS JERSEY'S

828:
Good idea ... plus it might confuse the Flyers!! :-D

I think the mention of "second round" should be banned until the ticker at the 'booth reads 0:00.

@828

Awesome! I can't wait to see. Thanks for the consideration :-)

@Roger 94

Thanks for the support.

You guys are all the best!

@uncatim

Much appreciated.

Or, I could use all your ideas - just some of them may be in ink and the others may be in pencil.

Good News...I sent an email to the Folks that own the Cinema Draft House in Arlington and they are gonna start running the Caps games once we smoke the Flyers tonight.

My co-worker ("Die Hard" Flyer Fan)is giving me crap for spending "an unreasonable amount of money (his words, not mine)" to go to the game alone. I told him I will have plenty of company.

I also recommend Blue Moon with a slice of orange. And maybe some mexican food.

That's a winner.

@ 828

Look for me tonight bald guy,goatie red GREEN jersey going nuts

828........... 104

Any giveaways tonight?

Boo,
Hang on a minute, you can organise "Early Finishing" notes for bosses? Can I have a "Late Start" one for tomorrow.

828,
How about lots of signs and you can show them one at a time ala Bob Dylan?

Jim,

You mean on the movie screen?

BB should of never mentioned Green's "issue" now the Flyer's will really go after him

That would be Sweeeeeeeeeet if HUNTER was in the building!

fat jack - I will try and get down there... I just hope there is not much traffic heading north on 395 around 5pm... but I will do my best!

red green jersey... sorry, that made me laugh.

Well folks, I'm off to work. No matter what happens tonight, stay loud. These boys deserve to have every single person in the house behind them, yelling for them to play their hearts out. No matter what happens tonight, stay proud. They have accomplished so much in so little time and will only be that much better next year. I'm glad I found the Caps, because they are truly a team you can get behind, 110%. I've got my red t-shirt on under my uniform. When I get home from work, the game will be decided (unless it goes to 4OTs). No one is allowed to tell me the score or the outcome before I watch it. I will be on much later, hopefully with words of celebration, not sadness. But with this team, there really is no defeat, because they're only going to get better. Are you scared now, Pierre McGuire??

Let's go Caps!!!!

my 2 cents: I like "Vengeance Later, Golf Now!"

Could you imagine the mayhem and frenzy in the crowd if Dale Hunter came out to wave at the crowd pregame????

The foundation of the Verizon center would shatter.

@ Eric

I agree. If Hunter made an appearance tonight, the roof would blow off the Phone Booth!!!!

Doubt it will happen, so let's just get crazy Rockin' the Red anyways. "See" you all there tonight.

Let's Go Caps!!!!

Thanks for the vote jmu_capsgirl!

@ Jim

That would be so awesome, I love that place!

@ Roger94, were her friends as old as her?

I BELIEVE!

My crew and I are grabbing Pre game drinks at RFD's for any of you lone ticket holders. The mroe the merrier.

I will be at RFD's also, half price pizza's on tuesday after 4pm

I think it would be an awesome start for Dale Hunter to go out and drop the ceremonial first puck. Dont see it happening but that would be amazing.

How many teams (or what %)that won game 6 also won game 7?

@Reekie

Sweet! I didn't even know about the pizza deal. Hopefully there isn't some caveat like "not available on game days" or something like that.

Oy. Did I just misspell "Vengeance" six times in one post.

I made myself look like a Flyers fan. They're very proud of the fact that they can spell "Eagles"... as long as everyone works at it together.

VENGEANCE LATER!!

Dear Flyers and Fans,

Enjoy your early spring vacation.

Sincerely,
The Caps and their Fans

P.S. Cry and whine now......vengeance later

For those going to the game tonight or those that just want to see Game 7 again - Comcast is listing that they are going to re-broadcast tonight's game Wednesday night at 7:30pm.

Both these guys have played really well!! Go Caps!

at 12:40pm Jeff asked:

"How many teams (or what %)that won game 6 also won game 7?"

I heard a stat on XM while driving to work this morning that the home team has won about two-thirds of all game sevens ever played. I don't know how long the NHL has used the here-there-here scheduling for games five, six and seven in a playoff series, but the number to answer your question is probably pretty close to two-thirds as well.

@ 828 What sign should i look for?

Vengeance is mine sayeth the Ov

Lets Rock this board gang!!!!!!

Dale Hunter should sing the national anthem.

I don't care who sings the anthem, as long as they don't bring in Gene Hart's daughter. What a joke.

Can I bring my old Guy Charron #15 tonight?

Sorry but you su?& capitals

it's overrrrrr my friend

5-2 Flyers tonight

Imagine Flyers with Downie, Knuble and Gagné. Capts OUT

Imagine the Caps with Clark, Nylander and Pothier....Your point is???????

If it's and buts were candy and nuts everyday would be Christmas.

Sign suggestion:

Brashear 1 - Cote 0
"lets go home"
