Ovechkin pointless, but Caps win
Jeff Schultz, Matt Bradley and Chris Clark scored in an 88-second span of the second period, Semyon Varlamov stopped 22 shots and the Washington Capitals beat the Atlanta Thrashers 5-4 on Thursday night for their third straight win.
1 Down, 2 To Go
I'm frustrated.
What a great performance the Caps had on Friday night in a must-win Game 5. But I'm frustrated because I wonder where this type of effort was in the first 2 games of this series. I just don't get how this team does not seem to put it all on the line...

In case you're wondering why updates have been infrequent recently, I spent a week vacationing in Huatulco, Mexico, where CNN occasionally shows 30 seconds of NHL highlights every four hours. When I got back, it was nice to see that the NHL had been as calm, peaceful, and serene...

While other teams were happy to toss commits tens of millions of dollars in new free agent contracts at the start of the NHL's free agent signing period, the Washington Capitals kept things relatively quiet. Sure, they did make one major deal, signing Mike Knuble to a tidy two...

The Rangers didn't play great last night, but they outplayed Washington, finally scored more than 2 goals in a game, didn't play atrociously, and got two points out of the deal. I wonder if Scott Gomez has watched the replay of Paul Mara's goal a few dozen times. If Tom...

Caps Strike First; Lead Pens 1-0
You always say, it's nice when you don't play your best and still win. That was our Capitals on Saturday afternoon in Game 1.
Don't get me wrong. I think they played well, even great, at times, but 22 giveaways and allowing countless odd man rushes will not get it done...

That was a frustrating game to watch to say the least. It was also a chippy game as both Donald Brashear and Matt Bradley threw down the gloves. The Caps escaped with a point but the New York Rangers won 5-4 to prevent the Caps from sweeping the series.2nd star went to Mike Green...

You know it's a weird night in Caps land when your scorers are not named Alex, but instead are named Jeff Schultz, Chris Clark, Eric Fehr, Alexandre Giroux (okay, one Alex) and Matt Bradley. The Caps also got lucky which is in itself weird. Luck usually runs against them,...

NHL Gets Wish; Series Tied
I know I'm biased, but come on now.
You can't tell me that there isn't an agenda by the refs. For the first 30 minutes of the game, the Caps were playing 5 on 7. After scoring in the first minute of the game, the Caps had the momentum and could have silenced the crowd...

I attended my first Caps game as a child in 1974 and have been sucker punched by them every year since then. They've found every imaginable way to lose in the playoffs over the years or not make it, at all. This game, the 2nd home ice game in the best of seven series against...
