One of the few Caps to have a four-goal game.

Yogi, Zednik and Bulis used to hang out all the time and they all had great talent. I remember talking to a friend of mine back when they were all with the Caps and he said that with the Caps luck, they’ll all spend lots of time on the injured list. I told him they all couldn’t be Pat Peake.

Turns out he was right to an extent. Yogi’s career ended early due to injuries. Bulis never really became the player he could have been here, and Zednik… well he’s had some freaky and scary injuries to be sure.

Still, lots of talent and desire in this guy. Wish it could have been better for him on the ice.
