We released our pre-season schedule yesterday. Click here for details.
I am in NYC today for the NHL Owners meeting.
We are preparing for rookie camp.
We are preparing for the NHL draft.
We have work to do on re-signings and ways to improve the team.
Lots of work this off season. It feels like our new season will begin tomorrow.
Thank you for this analysis. Do with it as you please. I thought it was interesting to review. It won’t matter til tomorrow night at 7:00 pm but it did make me feel a bit better and I will sleep a few minutes more this evening. I must admit I have gone from being excited to being nervous. Here we go…… read this article and keep hope alive. Don’t write us off. Try to be happy. You can do it. I know it

I just went to my Washington Capitals email account. I don’t have a single email of complaint regarding the team. Not a single “trade this player or bench that player or fire this coach or that GM.” I can’t remember the last time that happened to me and for that I say “thank you.” Must be good holiday cheer or that we have beaten both Buffalo and NJ in a convincing fashion back to back.
I did have some emails complaining about StubHub or lack of availability of tickets to Caps games or “Why is Semin becoming a free agent?” or about the length of lines for hot dogs at last night’s game. I even had a few about ambient noise filters on Comcast SportsNet broadcasts but, all in all, a happy fan base and a clean bill of health in my inbound email box. Thanks again. You made my day.
