Your savory breakfast links:

  • New Cap Troy Brouwer did the media thing yesterday, including:
  • In case you missed it, the Caps qualified five Restricted Free Agents (including Brouwer) prior to yesterday's deadline and let three walk. [CW (Whyno)]
  • The Boss says Caps fans should expect an active offseason. [Ted's Take, CW (Whyno), CI (Carrera), Chirps]
  • Perhaps part of that activity will be the Caps filling a hole (or something that reads similarly) in free agency. [KOL]
  • Pros and Cons for several free agents on whom the Caps may have their eyes. [Corey's Corner]
  • It's time for at least a couple of Caps to take pay cuts... here or elsewhere. [CBC]
  • Brouwer makes those around him better, it would seem. [RLS]
  • A "by-the-tens" look at Alexander Semin. [Peerless]
  • Speaking of Semin, who's the bigger contributor: him or Brooks Laich? [RLS]
  • Report Card time for Tyler Sloan... [Corey's Corner]
  • ... and Tom Poti. [Corey's Corner]
  • Congrats to the Caps for winning a local Emmy for Caps Red Line. [Capitals]
  • Call 'em "boring" and place the Caps in the "losers" column if you like, but I'm calling it now: Troy Brouwer will score more goals in 2011-12 than anyone who was drafted last weekend. [SI.com]
  • A bit more on Caps' sixth-round draft pick Travis Boyd... [Dump 'n Chase, Rink Rebel]
  • ... and fifth rounder Patrick Koudys. [Daily Gazette]
  • Happy 44th birthday to the well-traveled Patrice Lefebvre.
  • Finally, on an administrative note, I'd like to note that we've moved Emily up the masthead to Associate Editor - a long overdue acknowledgement of the tireless effort and fantastic product she puts out while on Clips duty and elsewhere. Kudos, Em.
