Final Thoughts:

One of my biggest concerns with the firing of Glen Hanlon was the ability of Bruce Boudreau to install his systems in the middle of one of the busier stretches in the schedule. Bourdreau's forechecking system was installed on Tuesday and he openly admitted that they had trouble implementing it last night. This is why I thought that George McPhee would wait until this coming Sunday to pull the trigger because when you're trying to move up in the standings and get yourself out of a hole like the the Caps are, you need every point you can get. Now the pessimist would say that losing last night's game was a result of that while the optimist would point to the fact that we squeezed out a point in spite of playing a confused game. So today I'll let you guys decide which one is which, did the Caps blow a point last night or did they end up stealing one?

25 down, 77 to go.
