That's as good a road game as you're gonna see. Lots-o' secondary scoring and energy the first two periods against a good club that's been playing well lately. I just hope I don't wake up to some bad news tomorrow.
I can hear Boudreau in the room now: "Sixty minutes boys!"

No bad surprises, the 5-0 lead turned into a 6-1 route.
A nice debut from Hershey callup Kyle Wilson - two assists including one on his first NHL shift and a nice play on the second one where he anticipated a clearing pass and one-timed a perfect deflection setup for Flash. Also, got stuffed on a breakaway.
Speaking of Flash, another mutli-goal game.
The blue-liners looked much more competent than what we saw in Toronto.
Most of Caps Nation will be keeping an eye out for a league announcement concerning David Koci and his mugging of Mike Green. If you give out two games to the best player on the planet for an arguably inadvertant knee on knee check - what do you hand out to a known thug who delivers a blatant head shot from behind into the glass?
Although goaltender Anderson may not have had his best game, this was not some Southeast weak sister, or a reeling Flyers club with a new coach that the Caps routed. The Avs are a good, speedy club at or near the top of the Western conference and, I thought, showed up to play.
