Team Report
The Caps didn't have a whole lot of room to sign a bevy of free agents on July 1. But they certainly made the most of their one transaction. The signing of right wing Mike Knuble to a two-year deal is a clever move by GM George McPhee similar to his...

Not just the MVP but the best player in the world<br /><br />Wallin I'd expect someone like you to be more humble after winning the cup<br /><br />All I ever see you do is hate on other teams and players

No dissappointment hear wallinbrock the name of the game is put the puck on net...the reason the pens won the series is due to a multitude of reasons..primary one is pens had a better hockey team than the Caps, also better goal tending and far better defense...hopefully that will change next year but OV is still the HART winner because he is the most valuable player in hockey

I was looking at some stats anf found some stats that the Washington Capital Fans might be dissapointed to hear.<br /><br />In the 2008-2009 season Alex Ovechkin had nearly twice as many shots than Geno Malkin and over double the shots than Sid Crosby. If Geno or Sid would of matched shot toals with Alex they would have easily matched or beat him in the goal dept...Instead they were able to tally more<br />a<br />s<br />s<br />i<br />s<br />t<br />s<br />Which is a reult of not being a selfish glory hound and<br />p<br />a<br />s<br />s<br />the<br />puck<br />which is what allowed Sid, Geno and the Pens to win the<br />S<br />T<br />A<br />N<br />L<br />E<br />Y<br /><br />C<br />U<br />P

virg.. you can keep your Russian and his MVP trophy..<br /><br />I definately prefer our Russian and his trophy.<br /><br />Good chance you will see the same moment in years to come, it is awesome. I expect Big Daddy Ted to grab a Penguin or two with the extra $$$ you have under the cap now. Gonna make it hard to hate you next year!<br /><br />Go Pens.
