Today is the last Capitals game of the season. It has been a long, frustrating one, but I’ll still be sorry to see it go. I’ll also be sorry to miss Japers Rink’s Happy Hour at Clydes. That looks like so much fun, but it conflicts with Easter plans. I’ll have to settle for reading all about it from Washington Hockey Daily.

Today, I will be in section 407, showing off my old school Caps sweater again. Joining me will be MC Hamme and my co-worker Fred, a Buffaslugs fan. So far, the Buffaslugs, the Prince of Wales trophy winners, own a 2-1 advantage over the Caps this season. They really don’t have much to play for while the Caps have pride on the line. A win or shootout loss will give the Capitals a higher point total than last season.

At least the weather has cooperated, right?
