Via Unathletic  |  January 19, 2012
A scoring decline has left Alex Ovechkin looking rather unworthy of the 13-year, $124 million contract he signed in 2008. Perhaps we can blame the slump on his burgeoning rap career.

He has won countless awards, ranging from the Calder Trophy (rookie of the year), Hart Memorial Trophy (MVP), and he has just been selected to his fifth NHL All-Star game.

So the Montreal Canadiens lost yet another game last night. This time to the struggling Washington Capitals who were missing top defenseman Mike Green, among others, and who was playing backup goalie Michael Neuvirth.

Rapid Rewind: Blown Out

Via Rock the Red  |  January 20, 2012
The Washington Capitals laid another tremendous egg on Friday night, falling at the hands of the cellar-dwelling Carolina Hurricanes 3-0 inside RBC center.  Tomas Vokoun made 30 saves in a very solid performance, but Jussi Jokinen scored twice and Jiri Tlusty added a third as the Caps failed to pick up any momentum from their win over the Canadiens on Wednesday.  It was the second...

MONTREAL — Since Nicklas Backstrom has been out of the Washington Capitals' lineup, someone had to wear the other "A" as an alternate captain. Brooks Laich was that player for the first five games, joining Mike Knuble. But on Wednesday night, Laich wasn't wearing an "A." Instead, it was forward Troy ...

Steven Hindle: Beneath the Big Top

Circus City Braving cold and ice on a frigid January evening, many patrons of the Bell Center simply couldn't muster the courage to stomach the entire 60 minute performance that was the Washington Capitals 3-0 shutout over the home-town favorites.

RALEIGH, N.C. — Tomas Vokoun lay on his back on the ice, hurricane siren blaring and red light turning behind his net. He had done just about everything he could, and it wasn't nearly enough. While the Washington Capitals turned in one of the more embarrassing performances of the season in ...

Capitals-Penguins Preview

Via AP on Fox  |  January 21, 2012

The Capitals, though, haven't lost in Pittsburgh since the 2009 postseason and will try for their ninth consecutive regular-season victory there Sunday afternoon. Pittsburgh (26-17-4) has won five...
