Capitals 5, Canucks 1
Scoresheet - Wash Post - Van Sun
It was the second straight game the Capitals had let in a goal on the first shot of the game by the opponent, but just like the home opener, they were able to overcome. The Vancouver Canucks could only muster 10 shots on net as the Capitals ...

Four months with out Caps hockey and we are cramming in 3 games in less than 4 days. I haven't had time to get my season pass up and running on my Tivo. The Washington Capitals play Vancouver tonight at the phone booth. All these games, it's already starting to bug my wife.
It may not be such a ...

The Caps may have gotten off to a horrible start, but they sure made up for things on banner night at the Verizon Center. Brooks Laich broke the 2-2 tie in the third and Alex Ovechkin scored a pair as the Capitals extend their home ...

The Washington Capitals didn't get the best of starts tonight as they fell early 3-0, fought their way back to a 4-4 tie, only to surrender another 3 goals in the third. In a wild scoring affair the Caps drop their season opener to the ...

The first step for the Washington Capitals starts tonight in Atlanta. And it's two good friends in Bruce Boudreau and John Anderson that will lead their teams on the ice in a Southeast Division show down. The Caps are actually facing a pretty tough weekend with a game tonight and turn around and ...

During Media Day at Verizon Center yesterday, seeing the players as they were being interviewed was quite the experience. Seeing how this team was nothing a few short years ago, to a team that is full of youth and character that seemed excited for the season to begin. But it was an old vet that ...

The Capitals had their Media Day today at the Verizon Center. Being a well known blogger (to like 5 of you out there), I had an opportunity to crash the luncheon. So putting on my Sunday best, I sat through ridiculous traffic and pulled into the phone booth garage.
I actually wanted to see the ...

Ok, let’s break it down. Here are my predictions on how the Eastern Conference is going to lay out from worst to first. Since the top three spots are reserved, those will be my picks for Division Champs. The list is ranked much like it would if it were the end of the season and we would see ...

Capitals 4, Bruins 5 OT/SO (1-2)

The Washington Capitals faced their first overtime of the preseason and their first shootout. But the result wasn't what they wanted as Alex Ovechkin was the only player with a shoot out goal and the Bruins drop the Caps 5-4.

The last Capitals preseason game is today and it's a 5:00 pm start time, so don't show up late. Caps will take on the Bruins who only have 2 wins so far in games that don't count. The B's are probably thinking that is is a good thing they don't.
The Capitals, however, are enjoying their ...

Capitals 5, Flyers 1

It's a preseason game, so any thoughts of the Caps getting vengeance for the 2-1 loss up in Philly or the early post season exit by the Flyers should stop. Vengeance will come when the Caps knock them out of the playoffs, not by a meaningless game a ...

The Capitals are guilty of being a bit too fancy and a slow start played into the hands of the Philadelphia Flyers as they hand the Caps their first loss of the preseason, 2-1. The Flyers played the perfect defensive game of slowing down the high ...

The Philadelphia Flyers, the Capitals next preseason foe, trimmed their roster. They cut 13 players yesterday and released former Cap prospect Maxime Ouellet today. Antero Niittymaki has returned to camp for the Flyers after having left hip surgery, but most likely Marty Biron will get the start ...

In an exhibition game that pitted the New York Rangers against Metallurg Magnitogorsk of the KHL. I watched a little bit on the NHL Network and the Metallurg team jumped to a 3-0 lead and looked as if the Rangers were down and out. But 4 unanswered goals including a late third period break away ...

Seeing Alex Ovechkin wear the "C" on his chest didn't look too out of place Monday night as the Capitals took on the New Jersey Devils. At some point it's possible for that to be a permanent stay. While Chris Clark is still is captain of the Caps, it's still Ovechkin's team.
Ovi has declined ...

The Washington Capitals still have three more games to round out the preseason. And the Capitals are very close to 23 man roster now that they have cut Keith Aucoin (sent to Hershey) and Jakub Cutta (released by the team). It makes me wonder, why not sacrifice the last three games to the regular ...

Head coach Bruce Boudreau found himself in a Mercedes commercial asking about "Cup" holders. It's the same Mercedes sales center that did the Eddie Jordon commercials with the t-shirt cannon. I have to admit, those movie skills from Slapshot are paying off.
The video isn't great and the first ...

There has been a lot of talk of the Capitals picking up where they left off. Since it's the preseason, I don't put a lot into these games. But I guess something should be said for the fact that the Capitals are a perfect 4 and 0 on the preseason. ...

John Carlson was sent back to his junior squad and Mathieu Perreault was sent to Hershey. The forwards list is starting to get tighter, but the defensemen roster is still pretty beefy, which could be a sign of they are not sure which direction they might be headed in defensive pairs.
