Wednesday night, the Caps had a bit of a stumble, letting a game against a tired Maple Leafs squad slip through their fingers (and leading to the most pissed-off version of Spencer Carbery we’ve seen to date). With a brisk practice under their belts before hitting the road, the Caps now face a new challenge: the Colorado Avalanche, who have seemingly bounced back from their early-season doldrums and injury woes to rattle off wins in four of their last six games. The Caps will be looking to kick off what will be a very tough stretch in the schedule with a strong game in Denver.
