The Mondays cannot come fast enough for Mike Green.  He absolutely killed it this week! The season is one month old and the Capitals are atop their division standings today.

Last night, Mike dusted off his other nickname (we prefer Fidget) and scored the game-winning, overtime power play goal to give the Capitals a 3-2 win over Philly.  GAME OVER. [Video]

The End.

He was all smiles talking to the media after… and I’m beginning to think his hair does this on it’s own.  He certainly hasn’t showered yet.  All I know is they would never let me stand this close to him when he’s all sweaty.  Check out the shadow on the wall behind him.

dark side?

He also scored on Friday night vs. Boston and last Wed night vs. Toronto.  These are not garbage goals – they are gorgeous, patient goals with miles of open ice and great position. I don’t want the Capitals to win, but Mike can score ace goals all day long.

Love me, love me, say that you...

You can watch tons of video of Mike almost smiling and being incredibly Canadian. [Friday video, Wednesday video].  There are even some Ovi interviews in there for Dawn.  But I’d rather look at this, which gives me the stupid giggles for no reason.
