The Caps and Canes played on Thursday night in DC. One day later, the day is Friday and the Caps and Canes are scheduled to play in Raleigh. Got all that?

The game begins at 7:30 PM on NBCSW. Chris will be recapping the Caps for you.

Have you guys read Craig Custance’s book yet? I got it over the holidays and read it in just a few days because it was such an engaging read. Custance sits down with different NHL coaches and watches a defining game of their career with each coach.
Any hockey fan, even those who don’t love to read, would enjoy this book.
The best 60 seconds on television this week was on Raw. After Matt Hardy won his match, Bray Wyatt appeared. The two proceeded to just laugh at and/or with each other for about 60 seconds. It’s lovely. But don’t take my word for it, check it out yourself.
