Been a die-hard of both since the early 80's. I am a huge Nats and Wiz...ahem... Bullets fan too, but hockey and football are my true passions. Played a little hockey in my younger years. I am dying for a team that truly has the ability to take it all the way again.... grew up spoiled by the Skins.
Caps have had some good teams before, but never one you thought could truly finish the job. I can't wait for this Kuznetsov kid to get over here. Caps have needed a top pairing shutdown defenseman for ages though I think Carlson and Alzner have been great. Need a goalie to emerge. Holtby has shown flashes of greatness and Grubauer showed promise while up this year.
I do not think the Skins will ever win again with our owner. I got excited by RG3 and then they possibly ruined him by playing him on a torn knee last year.
