The Noon Countdown: Firing Blanks

SB Nation 2014 NHL Preview

8 – Number of days remaining until the Caps open the 2014-15 season. But it’s also…

…the number of times the Caps were shut out by their opponent in 2013-14, tied with Detroit and Calgary for fifth-most in the NHL; only Nashville, New Jersey, Edmonton and Buffalo were blanked more often.
