This was a very tough stretch of games on the road being short-handed. We have lost a lot of man games to injury. We have traveled a lot of miles.
We still have a strange road trip coming up. Flying back out west to play San Jose and LA over New Year’s break but we do get to spend some time at home to wash clothes; re-bond with family and friends; do holiday shopping and get some healing and rest in; overcome jet lag; and try to win some home games.
We are pretty well positioned. We have the third most points in the NHL. We have the most points ever for a Caps team at this point in season and we are starting to regain our overall health as a team.
Playing 13 of 17 games on the road was punishing but as a great man once said, “What doesn’t kill us makes you stronger.”
I am proud of our team and organization.
Now let us all hope for “no first game back from a long road trip let down” tomorrow night! Go Caps!
New York City is ranked last in happiness. NYC is all about the Benjamins; all about “Cash is King”; and when the world changed, people became unhappy and angry. Money can’t buy happiness. This is so true.

Here is a good look at the last decade regarding best documentary films.
Cinematical has done a great job of covering films of all sorts and has been a great partner to SnagFilms.
If you want to learn about the radical sixties, here is your film.
Funny, poignant – burn baby, burn! And he is kosher, too!
Abbie Hoffman was a mad genius and here he is, 2 years before taking his own life.
This is a goofy wonderful piece of art. “Fight the powers that be and win!”
You are most likely snowed in today so take 12 minutes and watch this short.
The Last Reunion is a film about brotherhood, commitment, service and love. The Blue Nose Bastards with never before seen footage. “Just doing my job.” These folks are true real life heroes.
They fought to keep us free.
Watch this film. It is wonderful and uplifting. Thank you gentlemen for all you did for your country. I loved this film.
I watched Georgetown lose to Old Dominion on television at our on campus arena. That was a bad omen. And unexpected. I was unhappy and surprised.
I then watched the Wizards get spanked by the Suns. That game wasn’t close. The Suns were running and gunning and the final score wasn’t indicative of the closeness of that game. The Wizard’s injuries seem to be piling up again as well. Yikes. What a tough schedule indeed. Now they have to try to fly back into DC. I hope they travel safe and sound.
And then the Caps were down 2-0 after two periods last night. I was worried about their flight home after the game with the snow storm. I was worried about our young goaltender and his psyche. I was worried about losing back to back games. Our team looked tired and frankly uninspired.
And then we came out in the third period and played hard. Alex Ovechkin played like the MVP that he is scoring less than a minute into the period and then tying the score up single handedly. That performance gave the team the lift it needed.
We won 4-2. We get the two points. We end a 5000 mile road trip in seven days. We are none the worse for wear. We go 2 and 2 on this trip which is pretty productive considering the travel and schedule.
What goes around, goes around.
Have you ever been to McDonough Arena on campus at Georgetown University?
The men’s basketball team once played all of its games on campus. When I was a student, I would go to all of the games there. It was wild. It was so small; got so hot and steamy; and it was so much fun. It only seats 2,500 people but I swear they would make the noise of 20,000 students in Verizon Center of which I now own a minority position.
I used to tutor some of the basketball players my senior year on campus. I would get good seats in return. I once – and I have to get this off of my conscience – stole a St John’s player’s warm up jacket just to mess with his mindset. I think his name was Frank Allaire and we would parade the jersey around on campus in the following weeks.
I saw Bruce Springsteen play at McDonough Arena. We would play our intramural basketball games there, too. My team’s name was “The Cereal Killers.” I once dropped 32 points in a game. Don’t laugh, I could and still can shoot the rock.
There is a game on campus today as Georgetown plays Old Dominion. There is a major snow storm here in DC. Some students are stranded on campus. What a perfect set of circumstances. I am so nostalgic! Hoya Saxa.
Gosh, paragliding looks like a lot of fun.
This is a pure rush – a great sensation – ultimate and total freedom.
I commit to trying to do this one day. Wow. I love heights and this looks so great. I have done it off of the back of a speedboat but never untethered.
Watch this Sean White film called Never Ending Thermal. Total adrenaline rush. Wow. Enjoy.
