Washington Capitals center Jay Beagle will return to the ice for Wednesday's game against the New York Rangers. Beagle has been sidelined since suffering a concussion on Oct. 13. "He's one of these kids that wants to play, you see how hard he works in practice," Capitals coach Dale Hunter told the Washington Post. "He'll give us some energy, give us some size. Especially against the Rangers, (their) third and fourth lines are big guys and we'll need some size." The 26-year-old Beagle recorded seven penalty minutes in two games this season.

Will Ovechkin And Semin Play ‘Chip It In’ Hockey?

Via Kukla's Korner  |  December 29, 2011
from Chuck Gormley of CSNWashington, Today, when the Capitals are asked about the importance of Ovechkin and Semin staying within Dale Hunter’s chip and chase system – like they did in Wednesday night’s 4-1 win over the New York Rangers – they can’t stress enough the value of doing it the right way, and not necessarily their way. “Ultimately, if we want to win a Stanley...
