Capitals Announce Preseason Game Schedule

The Washington Capitals have finished Development Camp 2008 and finally officially signed future Hall Of Fame center Sergei Fedorov to a one year contract. With only defenseman Shaone Morrisonn left to sign (as far as we know, anyway), the Capitals released their 2008 preseason schedule.

It sure would be nice to be able to watch some of these games on TV, but I doubt that's going to happen. I remember getting giddy listening to them online last season. We got to watch via the intermittently working NHL Live Center Ice Video Portal (temporarily free), but preferred our own Steve Kolbe and Mike Vogel as far as the audio. All of us Cap's fans and bloggers commenting back and forth during the games was a good time. I anticipate it being exciting this year too.
