I agree 110%. Our coach has done a remarkable job of getting the players to “buy in” to a new way of playing with a focus on defense and patience.
This is a good read. Thank you Mike.

Old school. Capital Centre. Great stuff. Rock on! On SnagFilms.com. Have fun.
Thanks for your patience and support during this first year of our rebuild at the Washington Wizards.
I know this was a tough year and it had many low points. I am a fan and season ticket holder as well.
But I am convinced that we are pursuing a strategy that will work for us. And mostly for you as fans.
Without pain there can’t be gain.
We got younger.
The young players logged lots of minutes.
We developed cap space.
We have two first round picks coming up in the draft.
We had some fun along the way.
We have upside and our future is truly bright.
We improved our operations on many fronts.
Our fans’ passion has been reignited. Our business is strong.
Thank you. We are in it together.
Click here and see. This is cool.
Thank you Caps fans.
A great turnout last night– a sea of red. A loud building. It was a great environment. A hard fought OT win.
Win or lose last night we can’t get too up or too down. This is going to be a long and tough series. The New York Rangers are a great team with a fantastic goaltender.
Thanks for coming out and for being so supportive. The players notice and they feed off of your energy.
Go Caps! See you on Friday night!
