    Hello fellow hockey lovers! My name is Chris Hartley Romero and i will be covering the Caps for the foreseeable future. There is no doubt they are my team and i will do my best to keep those of you who wish to stay informed on all things caps... informed. Excited to get the season going and have my fingers crossed a new CBA is reached sooner rather than later. Now a little bit about myself.. i am 19, have lived in Victoria, BC since i was two and a half but am moving to Red Deer this year to play Jr.B and chase the dream Haven't played a game since christmas of 2009 when i fractured my collarbone for the second time that season. Have been in the fantasy hockey game for maybe six years but have been much more intense over the past two since i haven't been actually playing. Have very solid knowledge of the game and like to do my own scouting. Anyways, that's a little about me.. excited to get the season going and i know you guys are too!

    Thanks for the warm welcome guys, been extremely busy lately so i apologize for my tardiness. I will do my best to cover as much as i possibly can related to the Caps. I won't be on any sort of personal schedule for my posts, when i have anything i believe to be noteworthy, i will do my best to share with y'all, whenever that may be. My biggest enemy this season will be time as ill be busy with hockey, school, and possibly a job. Once i get settled up in Red Deer i imagine ill have more spare time as I just have not had much of it in Vic leading up to my departure. B0ndon, i will answer you question a little closer to the season but i will say this is gonna be the best lineup they have had in a while Cant imagine how strong our top 6 will be once Forsberg and Kuznetsov make the jump... scary.

    What's the situation with Orlov?

    Injured? Skating? At camp?

    Wilson is attending camp. Any reason to get excited? My pool values players with points and PIM potential but my findings indicate he's years away.
    I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.

    #CapitalsTalk Adam Oates confirms what he said when he was hired. Braden Holtby is his No. 1 goalie for the opener in Tampa on Saturday.

    Here's hoping Holtby doesn't get smashed on opening night. I would prefer to not have a platoon in net!

    Default Eric Fehr - Fantasy Sleeper?

    Keep an Eye on Eric Fehr. He is way under rated this season due to missing most of the season last year with injuries. He is a great acquisition for the Caps and will be fighting to be resigned and get more money. He is most likely available in most leagues since he is so under valued.
