  • Recaps and other assorted musings on last night’s win from us, Vogs, Caps video (Carbery, Sandin, TvR, Lapierre, recap), NHL, Flyers, AP, THN, RMNB, and BSH.
  • With less than two months remaining in the season and not much space in the standings, things are about to get pretty crazy as teams battle it out for playoff spots. [THN]
  • When Hilary Knight speaks, everyone should listen. [ESPN (via YouTube)]
  • The Caps needed to make room to activate Connor McMichael off the IR before last night’s game, so Sonny Milano hit waivers and headed to Hershey (or elsewhere). [TSN, THN]
  • Despite having McMichael back, the team wasn’t quite at full strength, with returning Olympian Tom Wilson sitting out sick and John Carlson out day-to-day with a lingering injury. [THN]
  • The chaos of the Caps’ locker room is familiar for Ethen Frank, who is a proud cat (and dog) dad and has a menagerie causing chaos back at home, as well. [THN]
  • Finally, happy 74th birthday to Larry Bolonchuk!
