[NHL.com Recap - Official Scoresheet - Official Super Stats]One of the hallmarks of a good team is the ability to win games you don't "deserve" to win. Now, I'm not saying that the Caps are a good team - or that they didn't deserve to win last night's game with Florida. But both arguments could be made, the latter more easily than the former. As has been the case often lately, Olie Kolzig was great and Dainius Zubrus and Alex Ovechkin were the best skaters one the ice. Undeniably, there's something beautiful about a game in which your stars truly shine.
The WaPo's recap is here (written by an Amy Shipley?!), the WTimes recap is here, and you can read reactions from all over the Caps Blogosphere (I'll hesitate to call it the Clogosphere) over at the newly-created Washington Hockey Daily, a site I threw together last weekend.
