And They're Off, Part II
Today at noon begins what promises to be the craziest free agency period any sport has ever seen. There are plenty of rumors to get to, but first, the news and transactions of the past few days, starting in Washington. The Caps have re-signed Jeff Halpern and Brendan Witt, and have signed 2003...

Capitals 3, Penguins 2/Monday Roundup
[Box Score - Recap]Caps win! Caps win! Caps win! Say what you will about the coming NHL season, but one thing is for sure: no fans will savor victories like Caps fans.

Tuesday Roundup/Caps 3, Rangers 2
[Boxscore - Recap - Postgame Notebook]Since I was out of town, we'll just pretend this past weekend didn't happen, ok? Cool. So how 'bout them Caps? As the old adage goes, you've gotta win the games you should win. Well, this year there really are no games the Caps "should win," but a home game...

Friday Roundup/Panthers 3, Capitals 2
[Boxscore - Recap]Stop me if you've heard this one before - the Caps got badly outshot, but Olie Kolzig kept them in the game. Unfortunately they didn't get any offense from anyone other than Alex Ovechkin and, as a result, they lost. The Caps are making life too easy for recap writers. In Miami...
Friday Roundup/Flyers 8, Caps 1 Gamenight: Thrashers @ Caps
[Boxscore - Recap]Well, it started out okay. In fact, for the first five minutes of the game, the Caps took the play to the Flyers, opening up a 1-0 lead on Chris Clark's all-effort second goal of the year.
