Ovechkin and McPhee are wrong
Alex Ovechkin took a shot at the referring during the playoff series loss against the New York Rangers.
“Not saying there was a phone call, but they wanted Game 7,” Ovechkin said in a Russian interview with Slava Malamud of Sport-Express. “For ratings. You know, lockout, escrow, league must make profit.”

What Did McPhee Do?
from pucksandbooks of On Frozen Blog,
Once upon a time, Capitals General Manager George McPhee was viewed, rightly I think, as cautious and shrewd each spring around trade deadline time.

The Capitals Sure Are Missing Alexander Semin
Where is Alex Semin? George McPhee has been with the Washington Capitals since 1997. He’s had a great run since becoming the GM, but I think it’s time to call out George McPhee.

Grading GM George McPhee
With another trade deadline approaching, and Washington Capitals General Manager George McPhee suddenly in the spotlight (or the cross-hairs), it's become obvious that there might be major changes this coming off-season. Before then, though, the Caps do still have a chance to make the playoffs. But to meet the season's original goals -- namely winning the Stanley Cup or at...
