Backstrom to the Future...

Posted 11-07-11 at 12:04 PM by Lanky Livingston (Red All Over)

You may have read the story that launched a thousand blogs last week, or Bruce Boudreau benching Alex Ovechkin in the final minutes of a 5-4 OT win against the Anaheim Ducks. Is Boudreau benching the face of the franchise, superstar Alex the Great a sign of the apocalypse, or a sign of the new accountability in DC?

Either way, the story overshadowed something more significant - Nicklas Backstrom continued his stellar play this week, scoring the game-tying goal to send the game to...

Five and Oh!

I’ve decided I’d like to "occasionally" blog the Washington Capitals - Welcome to ‘Red All Over,’ the Washington Capitals as Lanky sees them. Enjoy!
***

The Washington Capitals enter the 2011-2012 season with perhaps the most pressure a D.C. team has ever felt to bring home a championship. The past three years have had the same theme - dominating regular season performances, followed by lackluster playoff performances and early exits. The Caps have not made it past...
