But they did not get off to all that great a start last year either.<br /><br />After 8 games, they were 4-2-2 and they had blown leads in nearly all their losses up to that date. They were scoring but the defense and/or goaltending was issumatic and we were gravely concerned.Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14234179410280791548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14971098.post-82317934131063028552010-10-26T11:39:15.144-04:002010-10-26T11:39:15.144-04:00Methinks the grousing about the Caps record thus f...Methinks the grousing about the Caps record thus far stems from last year's regular season where the Caps were semmingly kicking everybody's you-know-what all over the ice all of the time compared this year's version that so far has shown precious little interest in what is going on so far.<br /><br />Which in all fairness is natural on both sides of the ledger. As for myself and myself alone, I'm not going to start worrying about the lackadasical attitude until late February, early March.<br /><br />The Caps have enough talent alone to win enough regular season games to remain safely near the top of the Eastern Conference and overall NHL standings without much effort. We know these guys will be in the playoffs and as long as they start putting their "game faces on" ahead of time they should be alright.Caps Nuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16339054012239423282noreply@blogger.com
