I love figuring out new ways to represent data. I learned about sparklines from an Edward Tufte book a number of years ago, and was curious about how the Caps' collective performance would look when distilled down & represented in a simple manner. I hope you find the results interesting.

Really good interview with Scott Hannan, which begins about 1:12 into this week's puck podcast. He talks about beaking into the league and about big hits and respecting other players. It's good stuff.

Behind the Net's SBN blog posted a list of the longest winless streaks in NHL history. Two entries on the list were logged by Capitals squads from the 1970's. My how times have changed. And thank goodness.

Is it just me or did this hit not look any worse than the one that the Ontario Angel laid on Booth? Wheel of Justice strikes again, tough titties Curtis, you aren't famous enough.

I'm okay with this only because to me it didn't seem like it was making that much of a difference. But according to that article defensemen are taking too many hits because of times the goalie can't play the puck? Not sure I follow that, and wouldn't that be good for scoring if it were true?
