Maybe Theodore should just worry about playing hockey

In response to this comment on Tuesday by Tomas Plekanec, “It’s not as though we are facing (Martin) Brodeur or (Ryan) Miller,” Plekanec told La Presse. “They don’t have a dominant goaltender. When you look at the goaltending matchup in this series it favours our team. I just believe that our goaltending is more solid than theirs.”, Jose Theodore, the Capitals’ goalie said, “Tomas who? Jagr?” [Jose] Theodore said, referring to five-time scoring champion Jaromir Jagr, Plekanec’s Olympic teammate with the Czech Republic. “Oh, Plekanec, okay. I thought you meant Jagr.”
Well, guess who scored the overtime winner for Montreal in Game 1 of their series last night?
Anyone that thinks we here in Pittsburgh started to panic after our first game should read this – www.japersrink.com– to see how badly the folks in Washington are panicking after last night. Occasionally bad things do happen to bad people.
