Well the opening game of the new season has been and gone and unfortunately the Capitals were on the wrong side of the early season result. The team performed quite well in what turned out to be a rather damp affair at the Odyssey. By half way through the 2nd period it was very obvious the Capitals hadn't taken part in any pre-season games. The team looked a bit worn out but despite that we fought the Giants well. They too looked tired at times as both squads battled hard along the boards. The game was very even, both teams looked to have the same skill levels but the biggest difference in the end was the Giants players knowing each others games a bit better than all our new imports did. We struggled to gel on the forward lines and that led to very few scoring chances for the Caps. I'm confident that in about two weeks time the Capitals game plan will become much stronger, they players will know each other a lot better and the on ice product will be almost complete. It is a very exciting time for the club and all the fans!
In other news, the Giants fans took to our Fanzine very well. We easily broke through our sales target and even managed to have one issue 'borrowed' by the Giants general manager Tod Kelman. We offered him an interview but who knows if he will get in contact with the CTTH team. I hope the other Caps fans like it as well. The 1st Issue will be on sale tonight at M.I.R, so don't be afraid to ask me or my associates for a copy. A buck well spent if you ask the Giants fans. Check it out!
