There is no news to report save for the crash of the Stanley ..cough ..cough Cup Champions!
Hopefully the Capitals will remember this aspect of the game called "DEFENSE" tonight and stop this skid into a heaping pile of shit!
OK, maybe it's not THAT bad, but it's not that pretty either!
At least we won a Cup!
