LOVERRO: Worst Game 1 loss since the last worst Game 1 loss

ANALYSIS/OPINION:

Can someone call the National Zoo Friday morning? They open at 8 a.m.The number is 202-633-4888.

Can you ask them to send all the camels that they have down to the Capital One Arena? In fact, any animals they have with a hump?

It’s clear the Washington Capitals don’t appreciate the postseason hump they carried into the opening round of the Stanley Cup playoffs Thursday night at the arena, because they only made it bigger by blowing a gift of a 2-0 lead, losing game one in overtime 4-3 to the first wild-card team in the Metro Division, the Columbus Blue Jackets.
