One stinker, one loserpoint game, and one shutout win....Anna and I go over it all (ok well some of it) as only we do. The highs the lows, everything in between. And a nice little dig at the Rangers fans while we're at it :D
And yes there's a 49ers reference involved...but for a very good reason!

Cheryl Anne Forster (C4) and I go over the first 4 games of the Caps Cali/Western trip with mixed results. Some bad things, but some good stuff to talk about. Some. Good. Stuff.
After we are done with the recaps, we launch into our annual Quarter pole report now that the season is 20+ games old. Naturally we're pleased with the results so far...
Emphasis on so far. There's more work to do if the Caps want to go....so far.

Thanksgiving US style is all over and we're thankful for the season Our Caps are having so far. Unfortunately every season will have its ups and down and this week's episode includes a rundown of their first loss in six games. We also discuss the loss of TJ Oshie and what the end result may (or may not) be.

Two games, one of which we both had the privilege of seeing live and in person and two wins....can't beat it!
Anna and I go over both games with our usual....detail or attention to it. Naturally we focus on the game against Columbus which was part of our get-together with Robbie Gross of our podcast partners the Sports on the Hill Podcast.
As it also happened to be Hockey Fights Cancer night for Our Caps we have our dedicatios for whom we carry on the fight.

For this week we have brought back three fourths of the stars from Episode 190 where we had our Roundtable discussion with several of our listeners and fellow Caps fans. Before we start there is a quick review of the three games in which the Caps once again went 2-1.
Now that we are about a month into 2023-24, we have gathered Doug Loosararian, Kasey Malone and Willem Bagchus once again to discuss our favorite team's progress. A bit long, but I think you will find the discussion very informative and a great listen. Always a great time when friends get together for Caps talk!
Tune in for an all-new fan-made Caps podcast-- Sucram's Capitals Off Their Chain Podcast It stars Marcus Lemley and Cheryl Anne Forster, their first episode is out now on Spotify!

Anna and I go over the games in the past week vs. the Sharks, Islanders and Blue Jackets. Another 2-1 week but there's still a long way to go (and grow!) with Our Caps. The trick is not to get too high or low....
Please keep Veterans' Day in your hearts by viewing (and donating) to either the Purple Heart Foundation or the Disabled American Veterans sites today. Veterans and their families are counting on you this holiday season.

In a week where our Capitals won two out of three there were some...unusual circumstances. Anna I go over the goings on as usual.
On a personal note there is also a stern warning to those who take their privilege as fans of both the sport of ice hockey and of the Washington Capitals with no regard to the integrity of the game. Dumbassery is not to be tolerated this year.

So due to an unfortunate series of scheduling conflicts, the PPP finds itself hosted in the familiar confines of our excellent podcast content partners the Sports on the Hill Podcast
Our friend Robbie Gross acts as Producer and ably assists in a unique segment involving a video replay....unfortunately for the purposes of this edition, you'll have to rely on our dulcet tones describing the action.
We go over the qualities of this young(er) Washington Capitals team in this young season. Suffice to say they are still finding their footing, but there are signs that they may well be on their way to success in the future. Stay tuned!

Curtain is finally going up on the NHL season here in the DMV!
Ok, so it wasn't much of a game. But as usual Anna and I have you covered.
But not before we go into a horrible piece of technology---the NHL app. HOw badly does it eat rocks? Let us count the ways. Also a bit of commentary on the options for watching games including the new Monumental Sports app.
The highlight of the week though was my visit to the Pherm Brewing Company where and event hosted by Locker himself, Craig Laughlin for the benefit of the Laughlin Family Foundation. As we've mentioned in seasons past, this show is dedicated to those who, past present and future, are dealing with cancer.
Contact us at the Facebook page for more information on how you can get your hands on the amazing new Red Locktober IPA beer, as well as how to benefit the Laughlin Family Foundation.

Anna and I are back!
We begin another season by reintroducing ourselves and telling Caps Fandom who and what we're all about. Plus I have a message regarding how things will go for this season regarding this podcast's activities. Some of you may not be happy. A lot of you may not be happy. But please know that we're not happy until you're not happy about our making you not happy.
And of course we give a preliminary assessment of this year's Washington Capitals based on what we've seen in the preseason. Keep your eyes on this team because while they may not be contenders, they will be an entertaining team to watch.
