A Fun Night

For those of you who were at the Verizon Center last night, it was a great game to watch.

I am proud of the team for being so committed and gritty; winning in a shootout; and playing without 45 minutes of first line players, Alex Ovechkin and Tom Poti, in the lineup.

And how about Alex Semin last night? A goal; a goal in the shootout; a great assist on the short-handed goal scored; and he led the team in short-handed ice time. And he now leads the entire NHL in scoring. He looked like a leader on the ice last night which was so great to see. As you all know, I have been an advocate of his skills and talents for a long time.

What ever happened to the message boards on “Alex Semin: Jump into a volcano”? Will that person who started that thread please email me and say hello? :-)  Thank you.
