I can't make anyone young again, but I can try to improve the lighting, definition, and the clarity of this great picture. 😀

It's all about development when looking at young talent! @KatieFlorio, @Tarik_ElBashir and @RealSmokinAl run through the four new @Capitals selected in last week's draft 👇 🔗: monsports.net/crrdraft26

Hard to believe, but the last 20 years of @Capitals hockey on @MonSportsNet (and CSN/NBCSW) have been produced by these two guys from Annapolis! Steve “Huey” Farrell (2006-19) and Ryan Billie (2019-26). It’s been a good run!

Won’t argue with you Ben. But will share my thoughts at the time. Emphasis AT THE TIME Math says probably not a playoff team.Thus the trades. But what if they do make a 2024 late run ? Need to replace a 4C & RD for at least depth knowing the playoffs are a war of attrition.

Chris Patrick really traded a draft pick for 3 NHL games of Timothy Liljegren I will listen to your arguments on the returns for the Carlson/Dowd trades, but that trade is just downright terrible

Not only did @miketirico make a mediocre Super Bowl game sound entertaining with his peerless PxP call, he also immediately afterwards hosted a LIVE Olympic wrap up show from the stadium field ! And did it seamlessly and flawlessly. Why he is the best in the business. Wow !
