If you're here for game recaps, I'm going to be disappointing you for another 82 games plus pre- and post-season. I will, however, wax poetic about the feeling of hockey coming back into our lives.
Fall's pumpkin lattes and boots make me smile/ But as a Caps fan, we've been waiting for the new season for a while.
The freshly-laid ice gleams under the bright lights/ A Capital slate waiting for electrifying sights.
All carved up with the blades on their feet/ the blue of the crease is ready for the heat.
It's finally sweater weather/ but a Screaming Eagle looks better.
