Caps GM George McPhee is making the media rounds today, with stops on Toronto's AM640's Leaf's Lunch (audio in two parts below) and locally on Sportstalk 980's John Thompson Show (link to audio). McPhee's new goaltender, Jose Theodore, also made a radio appearance, talking to the guys on XM's Powerplay Show (audio via Caps.com):
Finally, thanks to Dmitry Chesnokov for passing along another translation of a Sovetsky Sport article in which Alex Ovechkin is asked about the Caps' goaltending situation:
Q: What do you think about Theodore’s arrival in Washington?For more on this last piece, head over to OFB.
A: We needed a good goaltender because we were losing Huet. And our management made a though out move. I have only played once against Theodore in my career. It was last season. We played Colorado at home and won 2:1. Although, I didn’t score.
It is a shame that Huet didn’t stay [with Washington]. He was a great goaltender. But our future now lies with Theodore, and I am sure he won’t let us down.
