Opening night notes

I have one thought from opening night ... anyone who thinks Colorado goaltender Jose Theodore is the second coming of Patrick Roy, guess again. You cannot be giving up game-winning goals to the likes of Darryl Sydor.

In overtime.

On a breakaway.

As he comes out of the penalty box.

Skating like he's in cement.

Now, to answer noted column castigator Chris Altruda, when we move offices, the M.G. will become "the NB." As far as picking the Caps to win the Southeast ... dare to dream.
