Your savory breakfast links:
- Recaps and other assorted musings on last night’s OT loss from us, Vogs, Caps video (Carbery, Ovechkin, Wilson, PLD), Jets, NHL, AP, Reuters, WaPo, Free Press, THN, NoVa Caps, RMNB, S&S, TRL, and Illegal Curve.

- You’d like them to not even be in a situation where some teams might panic, but it’s nice to know that this team just…doesn’t panic. Ever. They’ve got this. [RMNB]
- Congrats to Logan Thompson, who earned second star of the month honors after going 8-0-1 with two shutouts. (Sadly, February not off to as good a start…but he’ll be fine.) [NHL]
- What’s the deal with all those too many men penalties, Coach Carbery?? [THN]

- Just over a month until the trade deadline – here are the latest tiers of trade bait for the Caps. [NoVa Caps]
- Happy 48th birthday to Jean-Luc Grand-Pierre, and happy 65th to Lee Norwood!
