The Rookie Image: Part I

The Caps rookies put it all on the ice in this years rookie matchup against the Flyers. A good win and good fun for the full house of fans. Cody Eakin and Marcus Johansson were the standouts, while Josh Godfrey had his moments with two goals. It was a bit surprising that Anton Gustafsson and Dmitry Kugryshev were somewhat quite. I thought we might see a bit more out of them.Checkout the Captials Insider for the game details and a good writeup about Josh Godfrey by Tim Leone.

Lest we forget, today is Alex Ovechkin's birthday, so Happy Birthday Ovie! See a photo tribute to his 25 years at the Capital Outsider.
