Washington Capitals and University of Maryland Thoughts







The Caps took the ice last night in the lone star state, to do battle with the Dallas Stars. Washington coming off an exciting shootout victory against Calgary Thursday, and last night Braden Holtby was back beneath the pipes despite an amazing performance from Neuverith Thursday night.

The first period the Capitals struck early in 4:26 The greatness of 8 scored his 4th goal of the season!! but the Stars were shining bright for Dallas tonight in 8:01 it was a goal by Erik Cole for the Stars were tied 1-1 at the end of the 1st, not much out of the offense in the 1st period but the defense played very well.

The second period begins and at 12:07 Alex Chiasson scores one for the Stars, the rest of the 2nd period was a back and forth stalemate, the 2nd period ends and it's 2-1 Dallas up on Washington.

 The third period was a complete defensive game, with both teams playing clutch on defense. Neither team scores and the game ends 2-1 The Dallas stars get the win over The Washington Capitals. I think the Caps played much better defense than the first 2 games, but the offense forgot to produce tonight something they were able to do the first 2 games. Ovechkin has scored so far every game this season he seems to be back in full form this season, and I think that Holtby has been terrible the 1st three games giving up more than 2 or more goals in each game so far, put in Neuvirth IMO! The Caps next game is Thursday night against The Carolina Hurricanes.

The Maryland Terrapins rolled into the sunshine state Saturday undefeated, and ranked # 25 in the nation to do battle with the # 8 undefeated Florida State Seminoles. Maryland fans were very enthusiastic and excited for this game, a day later Maryland fans are horrified and embarrassed to be Terrapin fans. Maryland lost to Florida State 63-0!!!! I repeat 63-0!!! what can say say! embarrassing pathetic here is what coach Randy Edsall had to say about the game "We weren't very good. ... I take full responsibility for this. We didn't play well offensively, defensively, special teams." That about sums up this game I can't say much more about this game either hopefully next week they will fair better against Virgina. I will be tweeting today on the twitter page during the Ravens game, and tomorrow will write about today's Baltimore Ravens vs Miami Dolphins game, time today at 1:00 PM.
