The Caps are just beat up and needed reenforcements. I also think Tyler Sloan deserve to stay on the roster for the season as well. Once that Caps get healthy, I would rather see Sloan stay and get rid of Jurcina. I was at the Bears game two Saturdays ago when they beat Philly 7-3. We'll have to meet up for a game one of the days. dmek25 11-26-2008, 10:43 AM what part of Pa. are you from? PennSkinsFan 11-26-2008, 10:47 AM what part of Pa. are you from? Shippensburg Here is some clarification. Chris Clark and Jeff Schultz were both placed on long term injured reserve, meaning Clark is gone for at least 10 games. Clark hasn't played well at all this year and his presence won't be missed that much. Bourque is likely up for him. Mink is likely in place of Boyd Gordon who will miss a few games. What is unclear. If Lepisto or Alzner is up for Schultz, because whichever is, will be up for at least 4 weeks. dmek25 11-26-2008, 10:52 AM you ever go down to fed ex? PennSkinsFan 11-26-2008, 12:31 PM you ever go down to fed ex? I do. I usually try and makes at least 2 games, this year though, none,. I am taking the Bar Exam in July, so I have bar prep cop=urses to save for, so this year was not a prime year. We usually go down and get tailgate passes as well. I am hoping next season we can have a theWarpath/DCPSR joint tailgate! ArtMonkDrillz 11-26-2008, 02:18 PM Is Alzner playing tonight? I'm going to my first Caps game in a couple of years and it'd be pretty cool to get to see his debut. PennSkinsFan 11-26-2008, 03:09 PM Yes. All four Hershey Call ups are on Lines tonight because of injuries. Alzner will be paired with Jurcina. Lepisto with Morrisonn.
