Your savory breakfast links:
- Recaps and other assorted musings on last night’s overtime win from Vogs, Monumental video (Trotz, O’Brien, Latta, Ovechkin, Brouwer), NHL.com, WaPo, CSNW, Frankovic, and from Boston’s end of the ice, CSNNE.
- All teh goals, in GIFs and in audio [Ovi (one, two), Latta, O’Brien, Brouwer)]
- “Powerplay goal? Check. At or near the left circle? Check. The goalie knew it was coming and still couldn’t stop it? Check.” [RMNB]
- Liam O’Brien is making a name for himself… [CSNW, HockeyFights]
- … and Michael Latta just might be making the team’s Opening Night roster. [Caps Outsider]
- Speaking of rosters, the cuts have begun:
- The first twelve. [WaPo, Patriot-News]
- The next five. [WaPo]
- And the Ballad of Stanislav Galiev. [WaPo]
- Pheonix Copley was one of those cuts, but his games in a tandem with Braden Holtby have earned him high marks in the organ-i-zation. [WaPo]
- #ProTip: Don’t stand in the way of a Joel Ward slapshot – especially if you are a pane of glass at Kettler. [RMNB]
- Dmitry Orlov‘s wrist may keep him on the shelf for some time yet… [RMNB]
- … even as Tom Wilson‘s ankle (and the Caps’ depth chart) may keep TW43 down on the farm for much of the season. [Peerless]
- Olie Kolzig is carving out a new role for himself – Player Development Coach. [Dump ‘n’ Chase, PHT]
- Finally, happy 56th birthday to Paul Mulvey.
