Show #264---Caps Keep on Rolling

Recorded November 2, 2024

 

Anna and I are back to cover yet another perfet week of Caps hockey. Our favorite team went 3-0-0 and are near the top of the Metropolitan Dvision at the time of the recording of this episode. The sweetest win of the week was by far the one against the Rangers. To celebrate we have extra coverage and commentary. Disclaimer our "player interview" was for entertainment purposes only (NOT A REAL INTERVIEW).

Despite the domination of the games, there is cause for concern. We discuss them in full as part of the final game coverage against the Blue Jackets.

Have your say.....what do YOU think of the Caps so far? If you want to book yourself on this podcast please don't hesitate to contact us! Listen towards the end for our contact information or seek us out (Search POWERPLAY POINT PODCAST) on Facebook for our group room page. We want YOUR input...make your voice heard!

And so it ends....but just for a while anyway.

Each has their own persepctive on what went well (and not so well) with an eye to the future for the team we all love.

Anna is off today, C4 Cheryl Anne Forster steps up for cohosting duties. John Blackburn from the CAPtasTROPHIES singing duo graces our show again; both are here to provide some much needed group therapy after Our Caps go down 0-3 against the Rangers.

We go through our usual recaps of the three games, pointing out the obvious and a little of the not so obvious. Believe it or not, there is some good to be mined from what hsa happened. Always fun to discuss with knowedgeable Caps fans!

And to wind things up, John B. is good enough to entertain us solo with a song!

Recorded April 20, 2024

Hello and welcome to the 2024 NHL PLAYOFFS!

The Mermaid and I go over the final week of the Caps' regular season fortunes, which of course resulted in their earning the last seat on the plane that is the 2024 NHL playoffs. 

 

At about 25 minutes in we roll out several hashtags we would like for you, our listeners to spread as much you can to help us put the word out about the playoff run:

 

#NoquitCaps

#Capsbandofbrothers

#Talladegababy

#happyvibesCAPS

 

Naturally there was some backlash from how things happened. And we answer it.

And finally a very limited preview of the series against the New York Rangers---spoiler alert (to no one) the series is really going to get nasty!
