Dmitry Kugryshev's New Media Debut

We chatted with Washington Capitals' draft pick Dmitry Kugryshev (2008, 2nd round) back in September -- he had some fun with his answers and clearly enjoyed the interview. Now Kugryshev has a blog of his own; check it out here, and read on for an excerpt about his time in Washington D.C.

"Washington is, indeed, asking around about goalies"

During The Hotstove on last night's Hockey Night in Canada's broadcast, another rumour surfaced concerning the Washington Capitals. Per Al Strachan, "Washington is, indeed, asking around about goalies". Adding more fuel to the fire was Scott Morrison who said that earlier in the year the Caps had a deal in place with Chicago. The particulars? Nylander and a...

Garts Comes Home

On about a dozen occasions the past couple of years I've been able to listen in on conference calls arranged by the Caps with prominent members of the hockey community. Generally there are a couple of bloggers participating in the calls, and at least a half dozen members of the traditional media. I enjoy listening to all of the questions asked, and their answers. The press...

Christmas in New York: Caps/Rangers Open Thread

Check out Sidney Crosby the goon.

If I was the guy being wailed in the nut sack I am not going to be happy one bit I would have turned around and popped him one.Yikes! Lets have some class Sid. I think that Crosby deserves some kind of punishment from the league office on this uncalled for cheap shot. Of course Gary BUTT-HEAD will never punish the league pretty boy and will look the other way folks nothing to see...

State of the Rangers

Last night's embarrassing loss to Ovechkin & company didn't even leave me angry or upset. It left me laughing. It was typical of this Rangers team to push and hustle so hard, gain a 4-0 lead and than just sit back and watch the other team take control for 2 straight periods. Alexander ...
