On this Saturday recording edition of the PPP the Mermaid and I go over the first couple games played by Our Caps...obviously not the desired result but there are good things to find among the bad.
Featured is a brief but focused analysis of both games; we go over yes all of the bad but some good highlights as well. We also go over a recent article from NovaCapsfans.com that lays out some changes made by the coaching staff in the face of the losses.
After the end of the main recording there is a message in the "Easter egg" portion from me--it is not easy for us to ask for donations but very soon we will have bills coming up. We appreciate whatever you can find to donate as this well help us keep up the quality of the show. For any such inquiries please contact me at either glhallowed@yahoo.com or @bluliner98 on Twitter. Thanks!!

Free Agent frenzy has passed and Our Washington Capitals have been busy to say the least. Superfan Jacob Michael joins us again to volunteer his services as an Armchair GM for hire and gives his thoughts on most of the main deals done thus far.
NOTE--We did NOT go over any re-signings, only the main transactions for new players.

Well no thanks to the Whammy from Miami there shall be no more hockey til next October sad to say. Anna and I go over the last details of the final three games of the season for Our Washington Capitals. The question of what went wrong will wait for a day down the line, we have something special planned for that, don't worry.
Afterwards we take stock of the year that was not just for Our Caps but for the show as well. I'd like to take yet another opportunity to thank you our listeners and fellow Caps fans for making this such a great year for us. We had a ton of help along the way...if you want to be heard as well, I extend an open invitation to all you Caps fans wherever you may be. We want to hear from you, and you will always have a voice with us here at the Powerplay Point Podcast.

The 2022 Stanley Cup playoffs have begun with Our Washington Capitals in the role of underdog against the President's Trophy winning Florida Panthers.
Last week's guest Jake Michael returns again to provide analysis of the Caps' efforts in the first three games. Our Caps have a 2-1 series lead, so the magical question is can they keep up the (mostly) great efforts so far? Tune in for more fan-involved coverage of our team!

Anna is off due to occupational obligations so I have invited North Carolina based Caps fan and Capitals Admin of the Freeze the Puck Hockey page on Facebook, Jacob Michael to join us.
To be honest it was something of a disastrous ending to the season for Our Washington Capitals with all four games resulting in losses. No, not exactly the way to head into the Quest for the Cup for sure. Jake and I break down the past games (well some of them anyway) and get into some soul searching discussions not the least of which being the Caps' chances to get out of the First Round (SPOILER ALERT---IT CAN BE DONE!) as well as open debate on the worst contract currently on the team.
Yes it's another long one but we at the Triple will always give you the most bang for the buck! Hang on tight fellow Caps fans, it's playoff time!

The Mermaid makes a brief cameo form Spring Break in this extended episode as we welcome back Grant Green and Cheryl Anne Forster both of the Capitals Society Facebook page.
It's a long one mostly due to the fact that there were four games to cover but also because we spend time (yes AGAIN) talking about the now rekindled "goalie controversy". Thank you so much, Coach! At least it was a winning week...
Be sure to catch Anna for Caps talk on the Sports on the Hill Podcast airing 9 pm Mondays on Facebook live and the TRU Radio network. Click the link for other methods of catching the show!
