Your savory breakfast links:
On the Nicklas Backstrom match penalty, automatic one-game suspension and subsequent hearing: - Suspension: upheld. [Japers' Rink, Puck Daddy, Dump 'n Chase, WaPo, WashTimes, DCEx, CSNW, 106.7 The Fan, BHerald, SB Nation DC, RMNB, DSP, Capital Games, RtR, Sick Unbelievable]
- Not that it matters much now, but in defense of the accused, his coach (who goes on the offensive)... [Caps365 (video), Puck Daddy, WaPo, WashTimes, DCEx, 106.7 The Fan, NHL.com, AP]
- ... and assorted media. [Alan May via Japers' Rink, WaPo]
- And for the prosecution. [WaPo, WashTimes, CSNNE, NESN]
- Then there are those not taking sides, but just sayin', know what I'm sayin'? [CSNNE, BS, BS]
- Now what? [CSNW (video), DCEx]
Regardless of where you stand on the Backstrom hit, I think we can all agree that the Caps lost their composure a bit down the stretch in Game 3. [Ted's Take, Japers' Rink, KOL, RtR, NESN] Yep, things have escalated quickly. [WaPo, WashTimes] "Teh Capz r durrty like there coach!!1!" Least-surprising article of the day. [BHerald]
Taking a closer look at the goat rodeo that was Boston's second goal in Game 3. [BS] Braden Holtby is no longer impregnable. Panic time? [DCEx, Sick Unbelievable] Not much outrage over this blown call (though we'll sit and wait for the League's apology). [Sportsnet] Speaking of officiating, why didn't Karl Alzner get tagged with a third-man in for his part in that [awesome term alert] "three-way hate triangle"? [TSN] And speaking of Alzner, he apologized to Brad Marchand for... something. Because he's one of the last good ones. [ESPN Boston, NESN] Babygate! [WaPo, Capital Games, RMNB, Deadspin, CSNNE, NESN (with an even sillier post here)] Last Alzner note: like their respective head coaches, Alzner and Milan Lucic were once teammates. Small world. [NHL.com] The Bruins won the battles in front in Game 3 and that was that. [CSNNE (with more on Boston stepping up at WaPo)] Dennis Seidenberg is digging his smash-'em-up matchup with Alex Ovechkin. Freak. [NHL.com, ESPN Boston, SB Nation DC (GIF)] The B's big guy came up big in Game 3. [CSNNE] But where's Tyler Seguin? (Other than getting pooped on, that is.) [ESPN Boston, CSNNE] If hockey doesn't work out for Marchand, there's always this. [D.C. Sports Bog, Puck Daddy, Capitals Outsider] And c'mon, Chimmer. Even though it's Marchand, you've gotta steer clear of the no-fly zone. [NESN] Yep, it's a grind. [Capitals Overtime] The Caps are who we thought they were. [OFB] So maybe it's time to turn to some deep depth. [DSP, KOL, Capitals 101] And the more things change, the more they stay the same. [Fanspeak] Leftovers from the "Trolling Tim Thomas with Obama" party. [Grantland, RMNB, DC Sports Bog (and again)] Maybe it's time for the Caps to bust out the hit stick. [DC Sports Bog] And Gio Gonzalez is awesome. [DC Sports Bog]
It was a multi-tasking Monday night for some D.C. sports fans. [Washingtonian] Oh, playoff hockey, you so crazy. [SB Nation] Thirty-seven years and counting. [Peerless] Here's what's happening up in Hershey. [Patriot-News] If you pledge my beard for Beard-A-Thon I'll be your best friend. F'real. [Japers' Beard] Finally, happy 34th birthday to Boyd Kane and happy 35th to Sebastien Charpentier.
