STATS Writer The St. Louis Blues saw their longest winning streak of the season end in their last game.
The Capitals today announced the signing of right wing prospect Dmitry Kugryshev, their second-round selection in the 2008 NHL Entry Draft. The pact is a three-year entry level one.
No team has any business beating these Washington Capitals when they pump 52 shots on net, literally doubling the shots tally of the opponent, as the Caps did last night in a 4-3 shootout loss to the Dallas Stars, but hockey has a last line of defense, and on Monday night at Verizon Center Marty Turco may well have saved his Dallas Stars’ season with a 49-save, first-star effort. The Capitals had a team record 42 shots on Turco after two periods — the game should have been over at that point. But Turco’s rebound control Monday night was excellent, allowing the Stars to avoid serious swarms of skilled Capitals’ forwards and pinching blueliners making even more work for their netminder.
All Blues Aaron Palushaj’s stock fell very quickly from September to last week. D’Agostini is a good forward who has been the odd man out on a Montreal team that seems to be constantly looking for solutions in (arguably) the biggest hockey market in the world. There’s no doubt in my mind that the pressure of playing for the Blue Blanc Rouge was a bit too much for D’Agostini to deal with.
Could make management glad he wasn’t traded.
The day before the Avs charity brunch, they sure weren’t charitable to the St.
The St. Louis Blues are in position to record their longest winning streak in over six years, but to reach that mark they’ll have to find a way to halt their struggles versus the Colorado Avalanche this season.
WHEN: 8 tonight. WHERE: Pepsi Center, Denver
