Storylines
- Nick Backstrom will play his 500th game tonight. He has 499 career points so far. Now, I’m not a mathematician, but.
- The Panthers play to a mostly empty arena, though they’ve actually got a decent team.
- No way the Caps were gonna shuffle lines after all four connected on Thursday.
- Happy retirement to the Ovi Horse!
- Karl Alzner on Niskanen and Orpik: “I’ve learned a ton from those guys already. I think the game for me has changed a lot.”
- The Caps got the day off yesterday. They spent it with puppies!
- Tom Wilson and his glorious salad might return next week.
What You’re Missing on TV
ABC Family will be airing Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2. Join in the adventure as Harry and his pals wrap up a story about equality, corruption, and rebellion with a finale that has nothing to do with any of that. Nineteen years after the Battle of Hogwarts, the miserable, horribly broken wizarding system in the UK is alive and well, but at least we got to learn all the exhilarating details of who owned which wand and when.
“They want the Swede.” Well, they ain’t effing getting him.
