Hello fine folks and welcome to game day! We are still riding high from our win on night one. Let's hope the momentum keeps flowing in our favor tonight. The puck drops in 15 minutes! And my bearded wonder is outside cutting the grass. Gotta find a minute to snag a picture! Yeesh!

What A Doozie! & Beard Day 2
Seriously?! That's how they wanted to start the series? Talk about a nail biter! No score after two periods and the Rangers were the first to score early in the third period. Luckily Ovechkin got one in on Lundqvist (after a review in Toronto) to tie the game. It would be that goal that sent the game into OT. And a long OT it was. Over 18 minutes into overtime, Arnott set up Semin for the game winning goal, giving the Capitals their first win of the series. The two teams will meet again tomorrow night at 7:30pm in Washington.
To recap the rest of last night's action:
The Red Wings came back from an early 1-0 deficit to defeat the Coyotes 4-2. The Red Wings lead the series 1-0.
The Penguins defeated the Lightning 3-0, in one of two shutouts in opening night. The Penguins lead the series 1-0.
The Canucks shutout the defending Cup champions, the Chicago Blackhawks, in a 2-0 victory. The Canucks lead the series 1-0.
The Predators defeated the Ducks, 4-1, in a very important game 1 win. The Predators lead the series 1-0.
Tonight's match-ups are:
Montreal Canadiens vs Boston Bruins @ 7pm
Buffalo Sabres vs Philadelphia Flyers @ 7:30pm
LA Kings vs San Jose Sharks @ 10pm
And as promised, here is the latest beard picture! There is only one tonight. I was informed there would only be a brother picture on Penguin game days.
I hope everyone is enjoying all the great playoff action! Time to go get in all the hockey I can before it's all gone!

Beards Day 1
Here they are folks! The first "beard" belongs to my husband, a Capitals fan. The second belongs to my brother, the Penguins fan. If anyone else is interested in participating in the playoff beard festivities, feel free to send your beard pics along!
Good luck to all! Hope you're Rockin' the Red tonight! :-)
And We're Back!
Hello to all and welcome to the 2011 NHL Playoffs! We left way too early last season and we're happy to be back in action. I hope everyone has enjoyed all 82 regular season games and is ready for some intense playoff action! It was certainly an interesting road getting to this point. How many thank you cards do you think Dallas Stars have received from the Blackhawks so far? Talk about really blowing your chances. Yikes!
Tonight kicks off round one with five games.
In the East we have:
#1 Washington Capitals vs #8 NY Rangers @ 7:30pm
#4 Pittsburgh Penguins vs #5 Tampa Bay Lightning @ 7pm
And in the West:
#1 Vancouver Canucks vs #8 Chicago Blackhawks @ 10pm
#3 Detroit Red Wings vs #6 Phoenix Coyotes @ 7pm
#4 Anaheim Ducks vs #5 Nashville Predators @ 10:30pm
It's been a great season so far, and I know the playoffs will be just as exciting. If you're growing a beard to support your team please join in on the fun! I plan on posting pictures every night around game time, 7:00pm-ish. The more the merrier! We are obviously Caps fans but we love hockey and don't discriminate. (Even though I can't figure out how my brother is a Penguins fan). If you'd like your picture posted (or your husband's) please email it to me and I will add it to the group. And don't forget to mention which team you/he's growing for! Good luck to all this year! First pics will be posted this evening. GO CAPS!
