Awesome, our top line is noe complete.
meant to say ‘now’ complete…
Been waiting for him to come back. The Capitals Report doesn’t like him but they’re way off. He brings much needed speed to Washington. Besides, his 1 assist was a beauty pass to AO.
Ah, at least, there is a Stanley Cup ring in the Capitals locker room again …
