Get to Know Joel Ward

Thanks to the Washington Post – here is a in depth article on the life and times of Joel Ward.

The human interest story is meaningful.

He is a very talented – hard working player – a player with quiet confidence – great work ethic – and terrific skills and grit and heart.

We were fortunate he joined our club; he is falling in love with our city and our community – thanks for rolling out the welcome wagon for Joel!

Joel returns tonight to play in Nashville; let us wish him and all of his team mates good fortune this evening; we are short handed as previously noted – on a long week road trip – let us gut it out . Go Caps!

3 Out of 4 Points

But it doesn’t feel too good.

Too many penalties taken.

Not enough shots on goal.

Zero for the weekend on power play. As noted, if we score on our power play all will be well.

A loss in the shootout.

Many men down on the blue line.

A day off today followed by practice on Monday and then a three game road trip.

Hang on to your hats. We are short-handed. We are improvising. We need to heal up and bring in some fresh recruits from Hershey to help.

Go Caps!
