There’s a proverb that says night is always darkest before the dawn.  So the darkness is Mike Green’s undisclosed lower body injury that kept him on the bench toward the end of the 3rd last night.  Apparently he’s walking with a “severe limp” (gleaned from Twitter).  I know that he’ll cowboy up and play tonight if he can.  If he can’t… (insert depressed sigh followed by head banging on desk).

Then… Dawn comes through with this gem.  If this doesn’t work on you, nothing will.

This is Nicky’s version of what I asked for earlier – he might as well have spelled out PROM? in Post-it Notes on my windshield because the answer is YES.  Always yes for you, Nicky.

The Caps are going to win tonight.  I’m calling it.
