Blueline by a Less Than Bruising Committee (Again)
The good news: the Caps yesterday spent nearly $12 million on their less than intimidating blueline. The bad news: all of it went to Jeff Schultz. Intimidation quotient on the back end remains unchanged. Level of difficulty playing with the … Continue reading
Storm Clouds Forming in the East
There’s a danger with playing it ultra conservative on Canada Day, the first day of unrestricted free agency: what if your power peers in the East don’t share that philosophy? And, what if they act like there’s no tomorrow with … Continue reading
Some Home Cookin’ This Week Could Be Caps’ Big Gain
If the Capitals play focused and disciplined and hard during their three home games this week against three beleagured opponents they will have a terrific opportunity to make up some serious ground on first-in-the-East Boston.
Montreal, Colorado, and Pittsburgh — all once-proud teams that have been seriously struggling as of late — visit Verizon Center this week.

On top of their losing ways all of these teams have some of the ugliest season stats in the league. Continue reading

Rooting for Fire, Famine, and Pestilence on a Sheet of Ice
I was hoping for more hatred. I don’t have a dog in this Pittsburgh-Philthy affair, so naturally I’m rooting for a rink full of rottweilers and pit bulls on blades. Who haven’t been fed in a while. Let it be … Continue reading
