We’re going to enjoy this for quite some time. Not often do you get to beat 2 rivals back-to-back in the NHL Playoffs. First Philly and then Washington. I’m not sure what kind of emotions will be swirling when the Pens take on Boston or Carolina but there is no way they can be as [...]

Being a Caps fan is not for the faint of heart, particularly, if you've watched this team for as long as I have. There are two many overtime losses, too many playoff losses to Pittsburgh and too many years that the team was neglected by its owner when they wouldn't put a truly competitive NHL team on the ice. To this day, I will never forget how badly outmatched the Caps...

David Steckel’s overtime goal pushed the Washington Capitals into a 3-3 deadlock in their Eastern Conference semifinal series with the Pittsburgh Penguins. Game 7 will be tomorrow in DC at 7 PM, and if you don’t watch this game, then I don’t think we can be friends anymore. Oh, and the Blackhawks won their series [...]

The saddest aspect of the Washington Capitals being mauled at home in the biggest game in franchise history is not the final score, or the unceremonious end to a season of celebrations. It’s not even that the bludgeoning came at the hands of the hated Pittsburgh Penguins.
No, it’s that for all of the hope the [...]

I wanted to take a very brief and quick look at the current Washington
Capitals free agents and provide some of my quick thoughts. When I do
a fuller review, these thoughts may change, some of them probably will,
but here are my off the top reactions of the Caps free agents.

The morning after a devastating loss, especially when your team just
looked as if they stayed home, is depressing and quite disappointing.
Not going to hide that in the least. But, Capitals fans also have a
bright future ahead, a franchise that boasts significant young talent

Not much I can say right now.
That pretty much sucked. The Caps were outplayed somewhat during the series, but fought real hard and were able to get to Game 7. They were outplayed pretty badly in Game 7 and that's why the season is over.
The one thing I hope the team takes out of this playoff run is that they have to play as a team. They need to trust each other more and...

Good article by Dan Steinberg
on Simeon Varlamov and the reaction to him and his performance. This
kid is going to be good, real good. We saw that this season and there
is no way we go into 2009/10 without Varly as the starter.
