Glad we beat the Sabres but it's also cool to see them in playoff position this year! Their fans deserve that!
Maybe we should give Charlie more starts?
LETS GO CAPS!!
i don't know anything about leonard's leadership past but why do people expect goal scorers to be leaders? caps made ovi captain much earlier than he was ready for because the pens named crosby captain.
Lindy did very well last night. I'm happy for him. He really saved their butts.
As you said, I think Leonard is starting to feel more comfortable in the league. These past few games you can tell he wants to take more control and charge the net with that confidence.
LETS GO CAPS!
I almost went to this game, but ultimately decided not to because I thought buffalo was winning this one. Glad I was wrong, let's go caps! Great show Dan
