Your savory breakfast links:
- Recaps and other assorted musings on last night’s win from us, Vogs, Caps video (Carbery, Leonard, Beauvillier, Thompson, recap), Oilers, NHL, AP, WaPo, THN, RMNB, THW, and OilersNation.
- Alex Ovechkin only had one goal last night (the slacker); but we look back on a night about a year ago when he put up three on the Oilers. [Rink]
- Ryan Leonard has been focused on staying patient and not getting frustrated with the pucks not going in…seems to have worked. [THN]
- After a bit of a slow start, Ovechkin is feeling more like himself these days. [DCBC]
- Meanwhile, Aliaksei Protas continues to struggle and hasn’t looked like himself of late. [WaPo]
- The Caps certainly aren’t where they were in the standings this time last year, or even in a playoff spot as Thanksgiving draws closer…but perhaps there’s nothing to worry about. [S&S]
- Happy 37th birthday to Max Pacioretty!
- Finally, happy locker room!
