The Capitals won in Anaheim 6-4, and that’s fantastic for the start of a very difficult road trip.  But after watching Chris Pronger knock around Mike Green like a Plinko chip, and not seeing the latter return to the ice, I’m not going to sleep as well.  And according to Jonathan Warner on WFED post-game, Green’s arm is in a sling.  NOT good.

But the show must go on.  Tonight’s opponents, distracted by their Hollywood acting duties:

I think we can take ‘em.

Congrats to Matt Bradley for earning the hard hat last night.  If I’m correctly reading lips, he said aloud to himself on the bench, after scoring his goal:  “It’s about fu&*#ing time.”
