CAPS NEWS

Apparently Ovechkin is mortal as per Tarik he had the flu all weekend which was a huge factor in his unusual lack of points.

Dave Steckel has the flu currently and is staying home to avoid an epidemic like we saw late December last year.

Lepisto has a dream.

A big thanks to the Devils for putting the Canes away 5-1. 

Canes are at it again tonight against Timmy and the Bruins. On behalf of Washington DC, let's go Bruins! Growl?

Heads up for Wednesday-The Islanders are on a pretty nice role. Where is Dale Hunter when you need him? 

NHL NEWS

If you told me a month ago that

A. There would be a three way tie for first overall in the east 

B. The Flyers will lose 7 straight and could miss the playoffs 

C. The Redwings would lose 6 of 7 then lose Lidstrom to a knee injury...

I would think you were crazy... and yet here we are.

The good news is that a playoff matchup with the Sens (although unlikely) is becoming more possible :)

And...oh yea...We won't get to see Peter in a sweet RBK edge jersey anytime soon...
