Warhead36 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 They showed a preview of the home opener during Sunday Night Football. "Watch the defending champion Capitals raise the banner." Got me hyped AF. I love being defending champions. DEFENDING. CHAMPIONS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ixcuincle Posted September 25, 2018 Author Share Posted September 25, 2018 Prices will probably go down closer to game time but it is the first significant banner raising in this city in a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one in Pittsburgh cares and no one on that team cares. They’ve won 3 in this same era. It’s a big deal for the Caps, but no one in Pittsburgh will care. The opponent that night is irrelevant. It’s all about the Caps and celebrating what they did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they only had the Caps do it once after Pittsburgh won the Cup, in 2016. Last year they opened against the Blues and in 2010 against the Rangers. There is no "can't open against someone you beat in the playoffs last year" rule. I would only call BS if they made the Caps do it twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurgundyMalaise Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I am also desperately looking for two tickets to the opener. I noticed they went down about $25 since last time but that's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max21 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I cannot believe it’s already time for hockey, seemed like 2 days ago when we won it. I honestly didn’t want this off-season to end in a weird way, what a great summer it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPinstripe Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I think its BS that we open and then the very next day have to travel to Pittsburgh for THEIR home opener. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooleyfan1993 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 So, there’s going to be an outdoor watch party for the caps home opener banner raising game Wednesday night. Might try to go to that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurgundyMalaise Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Going to the home opener! I've always dreamed of seeing this particular banner being raised, now I get to party with my kinfolk! If we play well and win a good one, may be the best hockey game I've ever went to and there's been some good ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean...there's only gonna be a handful of times where you can watch your favorite team raise a championship banner. There are going to be a lot of back to school nights. One every year, actually. Think you'd be the only person skipping a back to school night to watch the banner get raised? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDibbs31 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Wilson is going to get suspended for a little while after a headshot in a meaningless preseason game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popeman38 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 That hit was clean. Principle point of contact was the shoulder blade area. Head was more whiplash than anything else. Reputation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn’t a lunatic. He hit shoulder to shoulder, and the guys head snapped and he stayed down. That hit was nowhere near a head shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Springfield Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Yeah that’s a bad hit. At least wait until the regular season maybe? I dunno what to say. No reason for it. Payback for Kempney? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
