From 1892 to the present, over a century of Stanley Cup winners:

2006-07 - Anaheim Ducks

2005-06 - Carolina Hurricanes

2003-04 - Tampa Bay Lightning

2002-03 - New Jersey Devils

Blah, blah, blah
C'mon slave. That was weak.
Work harder.
Faster.
Better.

That's right: face-value, from the ticket booth, on the day of a playoff game. Sad, really.

It's always nice when predictions come to pass. Go Rangers! Caps are folding like a paper bag. :(
Ahhh. A Rags fan would have to jump in.
Here's some little rules of the game. If you're gonna slag on another team make sure you have the facts right. (I know the Pen fans still haven't figure it out yet. But they're very slow … I think its the water in the shit hole that is Pittsburgh.)

The Caps have NEVER played the 'Canes in the playoffs. :roll:

'Folding like a paper bag'? Tool, the Caps were 8-17 for the first two months of the season and now have chance (however slight) to make the playoffs.

No, I'm realistic. I know the team right now hasn't a chance in hell to make it past first round. I'd rather continue to grow with a higher pick.

The Caps have learned you don't win Cups by throwing money at the best available free agents. A teams foundation is best built through young talent playing and growing together. Maybe the Rags will learn that someday.

The Caps are the second youngest team and close to the playoffs.

Don't worry I won't shit on all you tools in few years when you want jump on the Caps bandwagon. Just don't be douche bags to other fans. And if you do … know what fuck you're talking about.

Sienna Miller draws a crowd in Manhattan.

This is funny. After I read this quote though, I had to pile on..

"If you're gonna slag on another team make sure you have the facts right. (I know the Pen fans still haven't figure it out yet. But they're very slow … I think its the water in the shit hole that is Pittsburgh.)"

I was at a Caps/Pens playoff game several years ago ..back when Dale Hunter played and it was one of the last years in USAir Arena. Hunter the goon tries starting a fight with a Pens player and I yell out "Hunter you pussy.. why don't you quit trying to start fights and play the game!" ..To which a Caps fan turns around to me and says "Hunter is no pussy! ..he'll fight anybody!!.. he's the toughest guy out there!" ..To which I reply.. "Oh yeah? …he's a fuckin goon! He can't play hockey, all he can do is fight, and just like the rest of your team, he'll never win a Stanley Cup because he doesn't deserve it, and neither does this town that doesn't support your team!!" (I was sitting about 15 rows back.. …at a playoff game.. …in DC.. ..and I paid face value for the tickets… half of the arena is Pens fans ..which you'll NEVER see in the "shithole that is Pittsburgh") ..but I digress..

So this smart guy replies "Oh yeah, when's the last time the Penguins won the Stanley cup, when you were 3 ?" …and I said "Yeah asshole, I'm 7 years old… we won it 4 years ago… now sit down and shut up and make sure that you tell your boss thank you for giving you the company tickets for the playoff game!" ..and his buddy tapped him on the shoulder and said, embarrassingly, "Uh… yeah man, just sit down. They just won it a few years ago.."

So, um.. I don't think he really had his facts straight. …and another thing.. about being slow.. Do they still put the definition of what the penalties are on the scoreboard/screen above the ice when there's an icing or off-sides call at a Caps game?? …because uh… they don't do that in Pittsburgh..because.. um.. we know what the penalties are. ;)

O Those Crazy Rookies

Brooks Laich cracked: "I told him before the Pittsburgh game that we're both going to score a goal. I just [joked] with him today that I forgot to say what net to score it on."

A Culture Of Losing

"No one expects us to do anything," Coach Bruce Boudreau said. "I told them, 'Just play the way you're playing.' This is a great learning experience. The only people expect something from us, is us, quite frankly."

Seriously, how long does it take for the reading comprehension to sink in with you Pen-tards?

I said post some facts.
This isn't Penthouse Forum, tool.
If you want to masturbate about a Pens victory from over ten years ago take it to the Pittsburgh is a shit-hole thread.

Still weak!
If you're gonna post cutesy little commentary, make sure its correct.

Laich is not a rookie, tool, it's his second season. (And don't try to get out of it by saying you're talking about Bäckström. 'Those' and 'Rookies' is plural … that means more than one.)

Boudreau's record is now 27-15-7 not really what I'd call a 'Culture of Losing'

Since you apparently like random pictures of penguins…

You're correct. I looked at the ticket stub, and it was the Lightning.

Yes, folding like a paper bag. Who gives a fuck about the first two months of the season? What award do the the Washington Ovechkins get for that? Spot 'em a couple points in their April golf tournament?

You can call 'em "Rags" all you want. I know they spent many years sucking wind. 7 years without playoffs. For some reason I didn't lose all faith in my team, though.

Washington doesn't need to learn that you don't win by throwing money at players. They need to learn that if you're going to throw money at big name players, you ought to play a system that works to their strengths, instead of shoehorning them into your coach's pet system. Y'know, like the good stuff they're doing with Ovechkin now? And winning (sometimes)?

Hey Slappy, you might want to switch it up a bit. "Tool" is getting old.

Here's a tip: if you remove the "T" from Tool and put an "F" in its place, it spells "Fool."

"Fool" is also a good stunner of an insult for use in your repertoire.

Does it look like I've lost faith in the Caps?

Sorry Tommy Toolbag, you don't get to decide what I call you. You'd think you'd have a little common sense not jump on the short bus with Pen-tards to slag on the Caps. At least come correct with your smack, tool.
