Game Notes: A Tale of Four Teams

Ah, the joys of being a Caps’ backer. Last night at the hellhole Garden, we witnessed hockey of the highest and lowest quality from the Capitals. It was a see-saw of a game ended in double OT by Jason Chimera. By virtue of his crashing the net! Alex, Andrew, and Lis, our resident Young Gun [...]

Take 2 – Playoff Opening Video

Yes, we posted the playoff opening video the other day. The Caps just posted another view of the video giving a better look and feel of the arena.

Turns out, the Capitals are a very bad matchup for New York. Through two games in this opening round series it’s the Capitals playing [...]

OFB TV: Game 1 Impact Dissected

We visit with Baltimore WNST’s Ed Frankovic in the postgame last night to assess the impact of the Capitals’ game 1 triumph. Jason Arnott gets love, but Ed also makes an important observation about the resiliency of this Rangers’ club under John Tortorella.
