Bullet points for what you missed while having nightmares of still writing 2008 on your cheques... By all accounts the Winter classic was a beauty, eh? Wings take it 6-4; B's win 10th in a row; Caps win 5th in a row. Lame, guys. Get to ten and we'll talk. Oh, and Ovie almost killed a guy, but whatever.
