Daily Washington Capitals news and notes
Mike Richards is accused of taking another shot at the media, but one writer in particular seems to be poking him with a sharpened stick.
A solid team effort leads the Washington Capitals to a 5-3 afternoon victory over the visiting Philadelphia Flyers.
Over/Under on the number of times Ole-Kristian Tollefsen gets laid out in this period: 3.5
Two Caps goals scored from a combined eight feet out from the net. Beautiful.
