Alex is being treated like a rock star in Vancouver. Check out these articles to see for yourself. This is deservedly so. Alex is two-time reigning MVP; has great charisma; and is a First Team NHL All-Star. I love the photo montage of him at practice. Wow.
On the other hand, Mike Green, who is also a First Team NHL All-Star, was hit in the head by an Avalanche player who did not receive a suspension by the NHL. See Jim Kelley’s piece here. Thanks Jim and please get well soon. See these articles as well.
What a tough schedule we have tonight and tomorrow night, back to back games again. Wish us luck. Go Caps!

On Mikey,
Ted, the owners, and the GMs need to clean house in the Bettman regime. Last I checked Koci had 64 PIM during 99 minutes of ice time. He’s not the problem. His coaches are. They send him out for one reason, The league should be suspending them. Oh! That would require them to have some sense of integrity… never will happen!
