It was an "odd weekend" indeed for the Washington Capitals, as majority owner Ted Leonsis put it in his blog review today. Washington faced the Boston Bruins early on Saturday afternoon, and performed incredibly well against the only team above them in the Eastern Conference at the time. Then on Sunday, the Capitals gave us a "total stinker" as Mark of Mark's Musings put it, while facing the Florida Panthers. Florida being the next team behind Washington in the Southeast Division of the NHL.
The intense level of focus the Caps showed against the Bruins in Boston had disappeared by the time they went up against the Panthers at home yesterday. Maybe they used up all of their adrenaline in the first game, coming home with an empty tank. Who knows?
The deflating feeling that comes following such a let down has Caps fans and bloggers turning their attention to other things. CapsChick of A View From The Cheap Seats and Dave Nichols of Capitals News Network take aim at a fun hating old clown. Meanwhile, Mike Vogel looks back at past trade deadline deals at Dump 'N Chase, and pucksandbooks wonders about dealing players within the present countdown over at On Frozen Blog. Let's all just move along, shall we?
