My prediction for Jack's opening monologue:

Hello again, everybody! High above the ice, alongside Andy Brickley and with Alex Kraemer at ice level, I'm Jack Edwards. You know Brick, with Russia in the news and the Bruins about to face the best Russian player in the National Hockey League, I'm reminded of Vladimir Lenin, who said "The way to crush the bourgeoisie is to grind them between the millstones of taxation and inflation." Now the Capitals aren't exactly the bourgeoisie, posessing a rather proletarian 6-6-1 record, but the way to crush them is to grind them between the millstones of strong defense and aggressive puck battles. We'll see if the Bruins can rise to the occasion when the puck drops here in a few minutes.

Van Massenhoven was so brutal

Stars Wars music for a ceremony of a ref officiating his 1,000th is interesting

Truly impossible not to read this in his voice and marvel.

Given the qualify of competition, this is on pace to likely be the best period of the season thus far

Yeah this is much better effort. Now if only we can Krug to not suck we’ll be in business.

Twas a good run - in reality, kind of mediocre for a 7 game stretch - but it's time to pass the torch. Holtby was fucking Holtby again

Strange game. They lost, but considering they have four regulars out, they didn’t play badly. Caps make you pay for mistakes.
