Brooks Laich: What a Stand Up Guy

As if girls needed another reason to love Brooks Laich! As most people know, the Capitals lost in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup quarterfinals to the Montreal Canadiens. The boys left the locker room angry and sad yet Brooks Laich still stopped to help a fan change her tire.
Brooks doesn't see the big deal about it but when you're gorgeous and a hockey player any little thing you do is a big deal, especially after a loss like that. Brooks own words were 'Just because my day sucked didn't mean I couldn't help someone'. For full story from the Washington Post click HERE.

Playoffs Recap: Day 6

What a night! Sporting my Bruins shirt I watched the exciting match up with the Sabres. The Bruins started their physical play in game 2 and it definitely seems to be working for them. The Sabres fell in a 2-1 game.
The Kings came back at the Canucks breaking the series tie and now leading 2-1.
But the big story though was the Capitals annihilating win over the Canadiens. 5-1.. 5 TO 1! Four of which were scored in the second period by Knuble, Laich, Fehr and Ovechkin and Bradley in the third. Ovechkin had the best goal of the night with a lightning fast one-timer. It also gets the 'OH MY GOD HOW ADORABLE' award for Nick Backstrom's reaction to it.
Here's the video:

Why are hockey players so darn cute? Ovi looks like a kid on that ice!

Brooksy is Back!

Looks like Brooksy was all the Caps needed to get back in their game. With Brooks on the ice, behind a cage of course, the Caps beat the Thrashers 2-1 Thursday night at home with goals from Nicklas Backstrom and Matt Bradley. 

No score from Ovechkin in this game. Ovi better pick it up because Steven Stamkos has tied him and both have the second most goals in the NHL behind Sidney Crosby's 47.Weird considering the Lightning are doing even worse than the Panthers. Must be pretty frustrating for Stamkos.

Tickets for playoff games are already on sale! Be sure to visit the Capitals website for more information.  

Tonight I will be at the Rangers @ Panthers game so news on that tomorrow. Hopefully the Cats can reciprocate what they did with the Bruins and win again. 

Rock The Red!

Guys in eyeliner... My favorite!

Still pretty :)

Brooks Laich: Power Play Kill

Really, can this man get any finer?

Brooksy Out For Tonights Game

Prepare to cry ladies, Brooks Laich will not be playing in tonights match-up between the Pens and the Caps. Brooks took a puck to the face after fellow teammate John Carlson unleashed a shot that went off the crossbar. Brooks immediately skated to the bench and was taken to the hospital where he got sutures and got x-rays taken. There was a possibility that he would play today but unfortunately he will not.
Brooks hasn't missed a game in three seasons so this will probably put a damper on his season, not to mention he is sitting out a much anticipated game.
Go back to Hershey Johnny! You are not welcome here... Just kidding.

Brooks Laich is too fine!

Tonight!!!!!!

I hope I get out of class early today!

anticipating Wednesday...

Just Make Out Already!

Have you ever noticed how EXTREMELY close some hockey players get to each other when they celebrate or just talk?
Honestly, JUST MAKE OUT ALREADY!

Quick Photo Blurb...Brooks Laich

Oh shnap. This photo makes me want to swim in a sea of Brooks Laich's and forget all about the kid named Sid. Thanks Sportsbee for posting this absolutely FAMAZING photo.

No Ovechkin, No Problem

Who said the Capitals need Ovechkin to win? I definitely didn't. Although I LOVE the Russian bad boy I must admit that his team killed the Florida Panthers tonight in a 7-3 game. I love my home team but the Panthers got raped tonight and they deserved it. They were lazy and slow tonight and made absolutely no impression on me while the Caps totally shined.
Kudos to #1 star of the night Brooks Laich who scored 2 goals. 
As great as the game was though it would have been even better to have had Ovechkin there. There will always be a next time though.
Enjoy super UP CLOSE photos of the Capitals during their warm-up.

Ovechkin Who???

Washington Capitals 7 - Florida Panthers 3

That should pretty much sum up tonight's game.
They ripped us a new one.
None of the Panthers showed up to play.
Brooks Laich had 2 goals, 1 assist & 8 shots on goal...stud.
My prescence either severly handicapped the Cats or I'm a good luck charm for the Caps...I'm going with the latter :).

With Ovechkin out for 2 games due to his hit on the BlackHawks Brian Campbell on Sunday one might have thought the Caps would struggle. The complete opposite has been shown. If they play this good without 'The Great 8', imagine them at full strength when he comes back Saturday against Tampa. Can anyone stop the Reds?

Crappy Friday for my boys...

Once again, in light of the Caps & Pens both losing on Friday night, I'm opting to post a couple of videos that are so much sweeter on the eyes.


Mike Green...

& of course Brooks Laich...


Pittsburgh is winless against New Jersey this season, falling 3-1 in their second to last meeting of the season. They'll have a chance at redemption this week. & I'm still not sure how Washington could lose to Tamps Bay 3-2. Bad bad night for my teams =/. The Panthers in San Jose for an early game today, hopefully they can bounce back from Thursdays loss.

Video of the Day: Caps Q&A - Ladies Man

The Capitals are asked which team member is the biggest ladies man. Ovechkin has it all figured out...
