The best way to sum up this week of Caps hockey; They won a game, then started their own mini-offseason 4 day vacation of boredom, then finally played another game. The Caps picked up their first loss of the season to the Oilers (who I believe they don't play again) to go to a still impressive 7-1.
Yes, the quest for the perfect season is over. Caps fans should panic, cry, and stop watching. If this team isn't gonna win 82 games, then what is the point?
From a new fan standpoint, I'm starting to pick up more of the game. I believe I know the entire roster, and I even know 2 guys who are on the minor league team that have been called up at some point this year. Still need to work on my penalty vision as I can only spot about 5% of all penalties without the announcers and refs telling me.
Thanks!

While the blog is fun, I'm all about Twitter. I'm usually sending out my naive thoughts during all Caps games. @TheDugsMusic ... It's a Follow Friday, so here are some peeps you should check out on the Twitter machine.
All the ladies went crazy when Caps minor league goalie Braden Holtby joined Twitter...
That clearly doesn't cover it. As you can see it's easy to get on here...just share this site! Check out Twitter for more Twitter related follow suggestions. And check out the previous ones too...
