Caps vs Flames: Third time's a charm (hopefully)

Well, it's the Caps and Flames. Tonight Ovechkin is going for the record for most goals scored by a Russian born player. Here's tonight's matchup:

Notice how I flipped over the Caps jersey to highlight whom we'll all be watching with great anticipation tonight. After a pair of overturned decisions that past couple of games, Ovechkin will very likely be putting it in tonight (or at least trying harder than he did in Detroit).

Jerseys story: I got the Flames jersey in Calgary when I was going through Western Canada from FanAttic in Calgary, they had a few of these left and most were either Medium or XL (just like on the site). Unfortunately, they didn't have any Calgary Hitmen jersey (because that's what I originally went there for), so I just got the Flames Throwback jersey.

The Caps jersey is a birthday gift from my sister a loooooooong time ago and I've worn it to almost all the games I went to while in undergrad. Last season I got a bunch of signatures on it. Ovie being top and center with Kuzy to the left of his name (funny how they both end up on the top line together). Other names on there are Laich, Orlov, Chris Brown, Aaron Volpatti, Mike Green, and a few other guys I'll have to update later.

My Prediction: Ovie gets the goal, Caps win 4-1!

TUESDAY NIGHT RIVALRY NIGHT: CAPS AT RANGERS!

Tonight, the Caps-Rangers rivalry returns on... local television? whaaaaaaaaa, are you kidding me?

Ok, it's time to break down some numbers..

	Capitals	Rangers	Edge
Road PP% vs Home PK%	18.2%	85%	Capitals
Road PK% vs Home PP%	85.7%	16.7%	Rangers
GF (Road vs Home)	2.67	3.14	Rangers
GAA (Road vs Home)	2.33	1.57	Rangers
Win % (Road vs Home)	100%	78.6%	Capitals
Shots For % (Road vs Home)	57%	50.9%	Capitals
Fenwick For % (Road vs Home)	55.4%	49.2%	Capitals

I'm going with the Caps winning a low scoring game either 2-1 or 3-1. I've also discovered that eating the chicken dog at Shake Shack causes the Caps to lose, so I stopped after two times. Another match-up I'd like to point out is T.J. Oshie vs Rick Nash. Here's the history between them...

Yea, it's a few years old, but do you think Nash has forgotten? We likely won't see them on the ice against each other, but if we do... Nash better watch out! My prediction: Caps win 3-1

Other stuff: So I'm going back (when I have time) and trying to pull screen shots from games and gifs and what not. I already have most of the games written up, but none with pics and gifs and vids and all that good stuff. I'm going to be busy until the 19th, and then that weekend and Thanksgiving weekend, you'll start seeing some of the older games pop up.
