Kids Day at the Booth
30 November, 2007
I may be the only Caps blogger with a kid (two now, actually), at least for now. My four year old is really starting to get into hockey now. He’s accompanied Mrs. Gustafsson and me to several games this year. His favorite activity is skating — ok, running — around the upper concourse with his [...]

Knee-jerks and Notes: Florida, 11/28
29 November, 2007
It was an exciting night up in the press box, as the producers for “Hockey Night In Canada” were interviewing bloggers for an upcoming segment. (CBC’s Elliotte Friedman, who also writes a blog, did the actual questioning.) A View from the Cheap Seats, Off Wing Opinion, Japers’ Rink, DC SportsBox, and Abel [...]
Slow Motion Struggles on a Sheet of Slop
28 November, 2007
Let’s stipulate that by virtue of being a distinctly busy, multi-use venue — home to the Hoyas, Wizards, Mystics, Caps, an annual horse show, various figure skating events, scores of concerts — the Verizon Center is metaphysically prohibited from achieving a sheet of ice quality enough to rank in the NHL’s top third. Due merely [...]
From the Vault of WaPost's True Colors, Exhibit no. 106
27 November, 2007
During a standard, weekly online chat with readers yesterday Washington Post columnist/ESPN personality/general big media blowhard Michael Wilbon fielded questions on the minds of some Washington sports fans. As you might imagine, the news of the Sean Taylor shooting was of paramount interest and concern. But there were queries also on the Wizards, college football, [...]
Knee-jerks and Notes: Buffalo, 11/27
27 November, 2007
It’s becoming plainly obvious that Verizon Center is home to the worst sheet of ice in the entire NHL. This was Mike Vogel’s question to Tom Poti in the Caps’ locker room after†Monday night’s†game: “In the second period it looked like you were playing ball hockey out there.” This was Poti’s reply:
“That’s how it is [...]
Sarcasm, Thy Name Is Onion
27 November, 2007
A wonderful blurb from The Onion regarding the National Hockey League’s savior, Mr. Crosby:
PITTSBURGH–After a decades-long decline in fan interest that reached its nadir with the loss of an entire season to labor strife, the National Hockey League was rescued by the efforts of reigning MVP Sidney Crosby, whose goal and two assists against the [...]
