Your savory breakfast links:
- Hey, look – it’s the ‘Canes again. Here are previews of tonight’s game from Peerless and NHL.com, and be sure to check out our SB Nation partner Canes Country for coverage from the other side of tonight’s match up.
- Alexander Semin and his agent chat about the winger’s new deal. [Puck Daddy]
- Speaking of Semin, apparently when you make $6 million, you sit wherever you want to. [FanShot]
- A look at the Caps’ goaltending depth, with a focus on the latest young stopper to step up. [TWT]
- I guess the Caps got some love during the ‘Skins/Cowboys “game” last night. Not exactly the NBC broadcast the Caps wanted to be a part of this week, but you take what you can get.[Twitpic, @dcsportsbog, @nateewell]
- Nicklas Backstrom on making Team Sweden, Brooks Laich on making Team Slumpin’, and Jose Theodore on trying to get back into the starting lineup. [WaPo]
- Boyd Gordon is comfortable back in Hershey (for a brief conditioning stint), but the locals may be over-estimating him a bit with lines like “if the magic that Fleischmann found in his conditioning stint with the Bears two months ago works just as well for Gordon, the Capitals may suddenly find themselves with another scoring threat.” [LDN]
- Braden Holtby was strong yet again for Hershey, stopping 28 shots in the Bears’ 7-1 win over Norfolk. [Bears]
