Oh joy, four games into the season, the Capitals head to the rust belt for a game against the Gary Bettman's favorite team, the Pengyunz. Since it is a Vs. telecast, we can expect lots of talk about how Sidney Crosby is the greatest
player human being ever despite the fact he is not smart or talented enough to avoid going blade first into the boards last season. We can't let that get in the way of the NHL's insistence to promote a team from a city/region that has been losing population for over 40 years. Any wonder the NHL is the #4 league?
Alex Ovechkin has been quiet thus far, scoring only two goals in three games. The rest of the Caps have been shooting the puck pretty well, having scored at least four goals in every game.
