Better late than never! Anna and I return for a week#2 evaluation of Our Washington Capitals. We begin with a brief commentary on the recent disciplinary action due to COIVD 19.
You may notice a trend with the three games that we cover. See if you can spot some upcoming trends in future games. The Caps haven't failed to earn points in their games so far, can they keep it up?
For more of the Mermaid, join her, Robbie Gross and Carroll Porter III on the Sports on the Hill Podcast for Caps Talk every Monday night at 9 PM ET on Facebook Live and the TRU Radio Network.

Hockey NHL style is officially in full swing!
The Mermaid and I go over the first three games worth of action is our unmistakable fan-friendly style. What was good? What was bad? You'll find out after listening. But we warn you---no snap judgements (yet) for such a small sample size. We do offer you what to keep eyes and ears on for you Caps fans however.
Don't forget to catch Anna for Caps on the Sports On The Hill Podcast hosted by Robbie Gross and Carroll Porter III every Monday night on both the TRU Radio Network and Facebook Live.

Yes we at the Triple P are back!!!

We go over some of the major changes that took place since last we left you as well as what we're hoping to see from Our Caps this year.

Show #144---Feeling the Draft/Goodbye Braden Holtby
Tuesday Oct 13, 2020
Tuesday Oct 13, 2020
Recorded Oct. 11, 2020
Anna and I go over the goings-on that occurred with the Caps' Draft picks in the Entry Draft as well as all the Free Agent signings in the past week. Focus will be why the team's #1 pick has a good chance to make a strong impact on the Caps' fortunes in the near future.
We close with some parting words for Braden Holtby, he of The Save which helped bring the Cup to the DMV 2 years ago. Treat him well Vancouver, you've got a good one!
Hopefully it won't take as long for the NHL to decide when to start playing again but until then all of us here at the PPP would like to thank all of our listeners for sticking with us. We promise to be back very very soon wherever there is news about Our Caps.

Tuesday Aug 25, 2020
Recorded August 23, 2020
It hurts to say it, read it or type it but no matter how you look at it there is no more Caps hockey for this season....
Anna and I talk about (at the time of the recording at least) the recent event of Todd Reirden's firing. I go over what went wrong while Anna eloquently grumbles....
We also go over some very big questions/decisions facing our Caps this offseason, however long it may be. Yes Braden Holtby is one of them. No we don't have any idea if he will be back. Yes I have an idea for a backup.....oops....
We at the PPP would like to thank each and every one of our listeners for giving us their time. Thanks for keeping the faith. If I forgot to mention you during the episode, my deepest apologies.
As always we are open to suggestions, comments and questions for the show. Keep in touch!

Show #142---Long and Opinionated. That's What She Said.
Tuesday Aug 18, 2020
Tuesday Aug 18, 2020
Recorded August 16, 2020
Well our Caps are on the brink, and nobody here at the PPP is happy about it. And because we're not happy about it, we go on a rant like you cannot believe.
Okay maybe you can believe it but you're probably not going to like a lot of what we say if you're used to us being positive. But we're both longtime fans. And you have your voice too and we're happy to hear any feedback you have. Always. Because we are here for you,
We're not giving up. But it doesn't look good, listeners. See you next week. Hoping wishing and praying for a 3-3 split by then.....

Our first full fledged episode with hockey action begins with a thanks to several of our loyal listeners who helped keep the home fires going during the lull.
We then go into a recap of the Exhibition game against Carolina. Anna and I go over a thorough evaluation both the game and the team's overall performance.
And due to the talents of a certain podcast duo, we may have managed to have invented a new Caps based bar drink. Or have we?
Our next episode will most likely be later than usual due to the final Round Robin game not taking place until next Sunday, Stay tuned!

Show #139---I Like Toronto in July....How About Youuuuuu??
Tuesday Jul 28, 2020
Tuesday Jul 28, 2020
Recorded July 26, 2020
We are back because so, apparently, is NHL hockey. Anna and I share our concerns about hockey under COVID. But before that I share my dedication to another sport that athletes, and in particular hockey players know all about this time of year.
Yeah I'll warn you all now...I'm going to be THAT guy. Not that I'm not glad to have hockey back but the NHL's handling smacks of a government operation. I'll tell you all about it.
Finally Anna and I go over 3 keys (plus one) to the Caps' playoff success. Yes the goalie mix is involved. Yes we talk about Ilya Samsonov. No we don't know how/what his injury is. And we probably never will. Enjoy!
