Rough start for Tomas Vokoun, but the guy turned it up in the OT and shootout. He saved our asses in the OT. I think Vokoun will be a beast for us this year.

Does Jason Chimera lead the league in goals? He has three(!) to lead the Caps(!).

I think when Vokoun came here he said something to the effect of "It will be nice to know that you dont have to play great for your team to ahve a chance to win". Didnt realize he was going to test the limits of that so early

Also really liking Wideman on the PP. I think he is going to be our most effective point man. He keeps the play moving, causes misdirections, and gets shots through to the net. He seems to know what he is going to do with the puck before he gets it. Unlike Ovie and Green. Pass. Stop puck. Raise stick for slapshot. Reconsider. Raise stick again. Pass. Repeat.

Bruce ran out of lot of combinations on the PP last night.  Hopefully he settles on the right one.

Beagle is a nice upgrade over Bradley. Pretty good along the boards. Decent enough hands to pole the puck along.

Nice to see some life from Ovie and Backstrom tonight.

Brouwer is fast enough to keep up with ovie to give him a passing option instead of Ovie going 1 on 2 all the time

Went to a local sports bar here in Fayetteville rocking the Ovie jersey with a few friends. Glad to see they gave me a win. Go Caps!

Beagle got freaked up.

Any updates on Mike Green?

the game was probably close than the score indicated. Nice to get some bounces and a win. Maybe Ovie has gotten his crap together. Nothing he did was out of the ordinary for him, but to get two goals should give him some confidence

Did Russia House get shut down?  Maybe Ovie got creeped out by The Joe Greene pacing by the windows in a bulging trenchcoat.
