[Mickstix]

And right on que, 4-1 it is. They better get VV healthy quick. Sammy can't stop a beachball.

Caps need to do something about goaltending, maybe dump Carlsons contract so they can afford it

[Mickstix]

If they'd groom someone who could make that swing pass to Ovi on the PP, they really could move him. Couple other guys who make too much money could be sold as well. Getting Ovi goals (hopefully) is about the only thing this group has to look forward to this year, imo. They're too old and slow and goaltending too erratic to hope for much more.
