Capitals game tonight!

Tonight I am taking D. and K. to the Capitals game together with two of their friends. Hurray for student rush night ($10 UL/$25 LL tickets with student ID). The FIRST PLACE Capitals are on a roll these days, and it should be an exciting game tonight because the Caps continue to battle Carolina for first place in the Southeast Division.

Brent Johnson will be in the goal for the Caps tonight. Coach Bruce Boudreau is gradually giving more time to Johnson and less time to Ole Kolzig. I think he is recognizing that Kolzig is on the downward slope of his career. Still, I have to give Kolzig credit for staying in Washington all these years when he could have made much more money elsewhere (and probably would have been on better teams). It would sure be nice if the Capitals make the playoffs this year--it could be one of Kolzig's last seasons.
