Preds fan here....but a big Nic Dowd fan. I just thought that it was "crappy" that Dowd was a healthy scratch when his friends and family lives 2 hrs. away in Huntsville, AL. and didn't have the opportunity to see him play.
I know...I know people will say he isn't a major point contributor and have to have the best lineup in the game etc.. but c'mon, we are only in to the 4th game on the season.

I hear ya! Its likely a result of Kuzy being back and Stephenson playing pretty well to start the season. It was pretty much a toss up who would win that 4th line center spot.

Most Caps fans want him in over Stephenson.

where'd my first post go?

Brutal.
This team and its inability to hold leads is effing brutal...

Doesn't seem like much has changed since Game 7 (and much of last season).

Correct me if I'm wrong, but going into the 3rd with a two goal lead for SOME teams is basically game-over.
Not these turds. I'm not even surprised anymore; I just watch the game / highlights expecting a collapse...and voila.
