Too Little Too Late

12 February, 2010

Remember about 10 days ago when sentiment began to surface that the arrival of the Olympic break would prove injurious to all that great Caps’ Mojo? Today, not so much sentiment. In fact, in last night’s postgame, Bruce Boudreau explicitly claimed that the Olympic break couldn’t arrive soon enough for his club. He’s right. The [...]

Getting Defensive About the Defense

8 January, 2010

We unleashed our undergraduate reporters, Andrew Tomlinson and Alexander Perlmutter, on the Caps-Sens’ tilt last night, and they managed to chat up Flash and a few other Caps in the post-game, and listen in on Bruce Boudreau’s postgame thoughts. This morning they offer their take on a strong Caps’ performance Thursday night.

One of the most [...]

Hockey Sweater Obsessives, Your Ship Has Arrived

10 October, 2008

Paul Lukas of Uni Watch fame has published his NHL preview, chock full of hockey uniform photos from new sweaters, to memorial patches, to the sneaky “C” that Roberto Luongo added to his mask since by NHL rules no goaltender may wear the captaincy “C” on his jersey. So if you’re into the details of [...]

First-Round Flops Over the Years

20 June, 2008

No team can get it right in round one every year, even drafting very high. And at times all teams get it really wrong then.

Washington Capitals' Playoff Math Redux

3 April, 2008

The Washington Capitals’ season is down to the proverbial wire: one or two games remain for each of the teams in the Eastern Conference race, and that race is tighter than fitting these guys into adjacent Metro Rail seats.
The Capitals received some help last night from New Jersey, who kept Boston to just one point [...]

I'm Keeping an Eye on Ottawa

30 March, 2008

I’m going to ask a question to which I know not the answer, but the question may be rhetorical in its preposterous premise: has an NHL team ever started a season 15-2 and failed to make the playoffs?
(Of course not)
(I’m thinking)
The Ottawa Senators, who started the 2007-08 season 15-2, this morning are, amazingly, sitting . [...]
