The young fans' questions ranged from basic ("What was your first NHL goal?") to the kind of open-ended questions that led to some serious self-editing by the players ("What's the craziest th...

George McPhee's next personnel move, more pressing in its urgency than figuring out what to do with Michael Nylander and Jose Theodore, ought to target some brawn for the Capitals' lineup, to address the impunity with which opposing teams are attacking the Caps' smaller, finesse forwards.
