11 February, 2010

On Tuesday, the Caps’ PR man Nate Ewell posted the following on Twitter:
Who’s a bigger cult hero: Laing or Bradley? @dcsportsbog may lure some back to Lainger’s camp http://bit.ly/aWvr0I
The link is an article that the Post’s Dan Steinberg wrote about Quintin Laing and his thoughts on the win streak. However, most of the article was filled with praise for Laing, from his coach and teammates. How could you not like a guy like this?

Snapshot of Sacrifice

26 November, 2009

Imagine going on live TV with your jaw broken in two places and wired shut! That’s what Quintin Laing did with Comcast Sportsnet’s Lisa Hillary during the second intermission of last night’s 2-0 victory over Buffalo. I don’t know how much discomfort Lainger was in, but he managed to smile pretty much throughout the exchange. [...]

It's Getting Dazzling in the Competition for the Duchesne Cup

22 September, 2008

This Gaetan Duchesne Cup competition, I’m starting to really dig it; I think the Caps may well wanna keep it around a while. Sunday’s first scrimmage was entertaining and good fun, but Monday’s, which featured Alexander Ovechkin in a competitive environment for the first time in the 2008 camp, was on a whole ‘nother level [...]

Knee-Jerks & Notes: Caps-Habs, 1/31

1 February, 2008

The Caps met Montreal for the second time in three nights. Given that the early headline on NHL.com was “Habs Go for Home-and-Home Sweep,” the Caps had something to prove Thursday night. They also were seeking to avoid consecutive losses in regulation under Bruce Boudreau.
Good crowd, good ice, two streaking teams, and a crammed press [...]

Recall that in leading the Caps’ kill of a Pens’ 5-on-3 man advantage in sudden death OT then, en route to the Caps’ shootout victory,¬†Laing threw his body seemingly at each [...]
