Monthly Archives: December 2006
Knee-jerks: @ Toronto, 12/23/06
24 December, 2006
An exciting game, on the whole, though the first period could be bottled and sold as a remedy for insomnia. Both teams were hurting and tired coming in, and it took them the snooze period to get it in gear. Once they did, though, some good drama. I’m worried that the heavy minutes that Brian [...]
Give Blood, Watch Hockey
23 December, 2006
Here’s a great opportunity to continue the season of giving and get something back in return. On January 4th, the Caps will be holding a blood drive in the Dewar’s Clubhouse at Verizon Center from noon until 6. Those who participate will receive two tickets to a Caps game.
On Mullets and Moving Vans
22 December, 2006
This past Wednesday, the city of Pittsburgh stunned Pennsylvanians generally and the hockey fans there most particularly, and most especially NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman, when the mulleted town fathers voted to award a $50 million slots license to Majestic Star Casino. Majestic’s was considered a super long-shot bid to win the license. Worse for Pittsburgh’s [...]
Are the San Jose Sharks Saving the NHL's Sweaters?
22 December, 2006
We in the East were a bit distracted Wednesday by news coming out of Pittsburgh, but San Jose Mercury News reporter John Ryan that day published a bombshell: the more NHL players jump into prototypes of Gary Bettman’s new uniforms, the more they want to jump right back out of them and into tradition. Ryan [...]
The Eminger Enigma
21 December, 2006
Five years into his development with the Washington Capitals defenseman Steve Eminger invites the most discomforting of questions by fans and team officials alike, among them this: just what kind of defenseman is he? Such uncertainty and pervasive, quiet disappointment would have been unthinkable a few years back. While a rookie Eminger took to the [...]
NHL Players Are Just Like You – Alex Ovechkin
21 December, 2006
A rough cut of the commercial that Alex Ovechkin and Ted Leonsis are in was just made available. Until we are able to embed the video, see it here.
Mirrored Shades for Marty Night
20 December, 2006
This week a band of clever Caps’ fans on the team’s message boards designated this Friday night “Mirrored Shades for Marty Night” at Verizon Center. The Caps host the New Jersey Devils then. Devils’ netminder Martin Brodeur apparently made enough of a stink about Alexander Ovechkin’s tinted visor from last season to help get it [...]
Knee-jerks: vs. Tampa, 12/19/06
20 December, 2006
Perhaps the Caps’ holiday party was last night — they played the first 40 minutes like they were hung over (or as my friend put it, “It looks like they’re still drunk!”). The first two periods were awful, with the exception of Ovi’s pretty goal and a few nice passes by Zubrus. The shot count [...]
