If you followed my trip up to Hershey yesterday, you know that I was disappointed not to get a chance to put a few questions to Brian Pothier but thrilled to learn that he's resuming his NHL career this week. But if I'm not asking the questions, I'd have Mike Vogel do so...

As I was driving up Rt. 15 North toward Hershey this afternoon Brian Pothier and Simeon Varlamov were heading back to D.C. That's bad luck for this blogger, as I had a few good questions I thought for Potsy. But it's more important that he get back with his Capitals' teammates...

This may seem an empty platitude, but it resonates more and more as a season progresses: Teams need to learn how to win the close games. There aren't going to be many 5-1 or 6-2 blowouts in the playoffs; teams that makes it into the second season have all the motivation they need...
