In random Caps celebrity news, recent call-up Steve Oleksy presented NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon with a personalized Caps jersey.

I’m not quite sure why Gordon was in in the bowels of Verizon Center this evening. Maybe it’s because the Wizards play the Spurs tonight at 7 tonight. Or maybe Alex Ovechkin is ready to take his talents to Daytona Beach and, oh great, now I’m worried.

No, the Jay Beagle bobblehead does not look like this.

During the third period of Friday’s game, as Panthers forward Krys Barch dumped the puck into the Capitals zone, CSN’s Craig Laughlin had a question for play-by-play man Joe Beninati.

“Didn’t Barch pull out his tooth in the first meeting… in the penalty box?” Laughlin asked.

Washington Capitals prospect Riley Barber has the distinct honor of representing the United States of America at this year’s World Junior Championships. One would think that in the days leading up to Barber’s trip to Malmö, Sweden, the young winger would be hitting up the mall to stock up on suits and dress shirts. You know, showing the event the respect and decorum it deserves.

Nope.
