Washington Capitals 2009-2010 ongoing thread

Another nice team performance by the CAPS tonight. All around good game by all. Will forgive the first 10 minutes of the game when the CAPS came out slow and looked unprepared for the Wild.

But GREAT victory! VARLY is the man! Keep up the good work between the pipes.

On a bad note, Knuble got hurt in the first and did not come back apparently surgery is needed on a broken finger and 3 to 4 week down time. BIG LOSS.

Knuble out three to four weeks

Mike Knuble suffered a broken finger late in the first period and will need surgery, a team official said. He is expected to miss three to four weeks.

The first line right wing was injured when he was shoved from behind and crashed headfirst into the net by Wild defenseman Marek Zidlicky. It's unclear exactly how Knuble was hurt, but he went hurdling over goalie Josh Harding and landed hard.

Without Knuble, it would seem that the chances of Alex Ovechkin returning to the lineup tomorrow night in New Jersey just increased.

Another back to back game set on the road tonight to face I believe Jersey tomorrow.

ROCK THAT RED & KEEP ROLLING CAPS!!!!!
