Capitals v. Rangers – Game 4

7:15:44 PM: Underway at MSG. C! A! P! S! CAPS! CAPS! CAPS!

7:20:45 PM: I’m in full away-game watching regalia. (pjs and jersey) – going to make the intermission beer run fun http://twitpic.com/3sreg

7:21:16 PM: The crowd wants blood at MSG. Already with the “asshole” chants.

7:30:51 PM: Caps got away with one and are now on the powerplay. They need to bury one here or momentum

7:31:52 PM: And… Jut as quickly Semin is off to the box and we are 4 on 4.

7:40:00 PM: Varly’s shutout streak ends seconds after a huge save. Rags up 1-0.

7:46:05 PM: Fedorov rings the crossbar with a monster slapshot.

7:54:21 PM: Intermission beer run!

8:04:22 PM: (and tuna and lines and bread and crackers)

8:05:15 PM: I mean limes. Seriously, Apple? Limes can’t be a word?

8:16:38 PM: A bit behind realtime now.

8:18:37 PM: Dammit. Badly fumbles a catch and we are down 2-0.

8:24:19 PM: Now is apparentlythe part where Lundy stands on his head.

8:41:37 PM: Caps doing an okay job of pressuring but nothing like Monday. Shame we can’t get back to back solid games.

8:45:25 PM: Caps are another 20 minutes of lackluster effort away from having to win 3 in a row. At least two of them would be at home?

8:46:03 PM: seriously, looks like a different team from Monday.

8:54:33 PM: Caps were not awful that period. Just not getting breaks. Rags getting the right bounces… Caps getting the opposite.

8:55:23 PM: LOL: RT @OnFrozenBlog: “it starts with a good dump” – Matt Bradley during intermission …. wise words on more than one level #caps

9:05:53 PM: Rangers pressuring well. Caps really need a quick goal here.

9:06:22 PM: And there it is. Alex Ovechkin breaks his playoff drought.

9:07:11 PM: AO uses his patented move of using the d-man as a screen. Beautiful.

9:09:32 PM: That goal seems to have fired up the Caps. Rags on their heels a little bit.

9:12:49 PM: Caps are dominating on the shot count again. 31-18 at this point. Oddly, Rags are dominating faceoffs for the first time this series.

9:18:33 PM: Sean Avery is a punk. He swings that trailing arm around far too much heading into the boards. This should be a double-minor for sure…

9:20:46 PM: and of course… Refs give him 2 for roughing. Should have been 4 for high-sticking.

9:22:24 PM: OV rang the post. Hate that noise when we’re shooting.

9:22:54 PM: AND THE BULLSHIT TICKYTACK call. MFers.

9:23:41 PM: Where was the crosschecking call. Effing zebras.

9:23:59 PM: and MSG staff buys the Rags some rest.

9:29:15 PM: Caps kill the penalty and push up ice, but Lundy comes up huge (again)

9:29:55 PM: (btw, I need an online stream for the hawks/flames game tonight)

9:33:12 PM: I will pay cash money for someone to break Avery’s legs. No I’m not kidding. #caps

9:35:12 PM: Rags are too good on a penalty kill…

9:39:33 PM: Caps now have to win the rest of the games to get out of the series alive. Back to DC on Friday.

Capitals v. Rangers – Game 1

7:35:36 PM: Still tied nothing nothing. Caps dominating with shots 12-2. Rags have had a couple good chances. #caps #capstwackle

7:44:46 PM: Tied up 0-0 after one. Shots 14-4. #caps #capstwackle

8:12:30 PM: Ovechkin with a beauty! 1-0 Caps

8:13:06 PM: And… NY ties it.

8:38:38 PM: 3-2 Rags after 2. Theodore looked not-so-good that period.

9:19:01 PM: I suck at hockey liveblogging. Caps down 4-3.

9:39:40 PM: Caps lose 4-3. :(
