If the caps roll with Holtby I could see them making a huge run he's been lights out the last month in Hershey

Should do better as a TEAM. Jack Mother Fucking Johnson should get the "C" this year as well.Commander of Awesome;1359886 wrote:Lets go Blue Jackets!! Curious to see how they do without Nash this year.
Well, the Caps won't be running a 1-4 neutral zone trap this year so it will be interesting to see.Crimson streak;1359999 wrote:If the caps roll with Holtby I could see them making a huge run he's been lights out the last month in Hershey

Will they at least get it next year? If not, they should at least give them the winter classic at the shoe or something.se-alum;1359851 wrote:It really sucks that Columbus lost out on the ASG due to the lockout. I was really looking forward to going and taking in some of the festivities. Hopefully will make it to a couple games.

There is no ASG next year because of the Olympics. Everyone expects columbus to get it back in 2015.

Winter Classic 2014 will take place at the Big House. I expect Columbus to get the ASG back in 2015.ernest_t_bass;1360067 wrote:This is what I was wondering as well.

I wil be attending both in that case. This year should be a blast and hopefully everyone trying to do their own little boycott keeps the prices down on tickets so I can go to many this seasonEnd of Line;1360069 wrote:Winter Classic 2014 will take place at the Big House.

AHL doesn't translate into the NHL. Also, i hope the caps go winless.Crimson streak;1359999 wrote:If the caps roll with Holtby I could see them making a huge run he's been lights out the last month in Hershey

It's not as massive of a difference for goalies though. It's AAA and there's always a few NHL caliber players there. You just don't get top 6 quality guysRaw Dawgin' it;1360739 wrote:AHL doesn't translate into the NHL. Also, i hope the caps go winless.

I do agree with this. I had season tickets to the providence bruins for 11 years and the top prospects to come out were always goalies. Their top forwards never did anything in the NHL.Classyposter58;1360926 wrote:It's not as massive of a difference for goalies though. It's AAA and there's always a few NHL caliber players there.

After the Board of Governors and NHLPA ratify the new CBA, probably the end of this week. MLive.com reporting that Detroit will open on the road against St. Louis and Columbus, 1/19 and 1/21: http://www.mlive.com/redwings/team/1357746458-399-919/red-wings-expected-to-open.htmlslingshot4ever;1361816 wrote:When is the schedule due to be released?

My guess is Columbus opens against Nashville.
