after a long hiatus away from the game i finally got got back into during the 2003-04 Stanley Cup finals, then the lock-out happened and got really into a mire about it
Alexander Ovechkin could be the biggest star playing today, got to see him play against the Penguins and the Canadiens this season. he has had a phenomenal rookie season with 52 goals and 54 assists, he can certainly turn the caps around, 8 other players have had career years, they are getting Alexander Semin back from the Russian leagues, and they have 5 first and second round draft picks, they can certainly be a contender in the coming years
great year in general too, Joe Thorton had an amazing year (96 assists and 125 points i would say is good) for the Art Ross trophy and pretty much handed the Rocket Richard trophy to Jonathan Cheechoo
