Caps 1, Flyers 4

9-19-02

And a rather inauspicious debut it was . . .   Oh well!

Click on thumbnail for full-sized image:


Barch and Tvrdon look a little bored sitting in the stands


The ref blows the play dead as people were digging for the puck in Bondra's face


Bondra and Metropolit work along the boards


Ciernik


Doig got an instigator for this fight with Fedoruk . . .


 . . . which really was just a long hugging match, with Doig getting punched a few times inbetween hugs . . .


 . . . and it's broken up


Doig had a chat with Fraser before the 3rd period; he was still serving his 10 minute misconduct for the instigator


2002 1st rounder Steve Eminger played his first NHL exhibition game


Robert Esche and his country music mask


Gathering in front of Neil Little, who came in for the 3rd period


Kip Miller can't believe the Caps are losing to the Flyers' prospects--believe it Kip!


Peat shows his woe at the scoreboard


The highlight of the evening; as the fans chanted his name, Peat put a pretty good beating on Fedoruk very early in the 1st . . .


 . . . 


 . . . and got the takedown to boot


Sutherby about to win a faceoff from Primeau


Weinrich had an awful yellow faceshield; must help with the glare but boy is it hideous


Olie demands an explanation from Witt


Yonkman made a few mistakes, but played fairly well overall--at least as well as everyone else (which isn't saying much hehe)
