Ladies and gentlemen, back by popular demand, it’s time for another round of “caption this.”
The game is fairly simple, as you hopefully know by now. I supply the photo and you bring the witty reader-submitted captions. You might not win any cool prizes, but you’ll be formally recognized for being better than your peers and will get some love here on the blog.
Here’s my humble offering for this photo to help get folks started:
“Although Dennis Wideman contested the shot, Rich Peverly still hit nothing but net.”
Think you can do better? Leave a comment below with your best caption.
[Editor's note: The winner is john with a caption of, Somewhere Alex Semin is smiling and saying (in Russian), “I taught him how to do that!” Thanks to everyone who joined in the fun.]
Dale Hunter used elbows to the head. Dennis Wideman takes them out with his stick to the head.

Wideman: Vokoun couldn’t stop a beach ball tonight. If you shoot where I am pointing it will definitely go in.

After the bear was caught in the net and poked with sticks, it was then tranquilized and released back into the wilderness of Boston via the Red Line on the T.

Wideman couldn’t find the defensive zone even if he searched the ‘net.

Couldn’t come up with my own but I love that quote from him and thought it was fitting.

Wideman attempts to live up to his name, while Peverly lives up to his stats.

“Hey Pevs! Our net is that way…have at it! And tell your friends!”

As Peverly goes into T-Rex mode, Wideman loses sight of him. Keep waving that stick, you’ll find him.
