From Capitals Insider:

Beagle was called back up today, and Boudreau said it was a reward for his performance in the rest of preseason… aka knocking the heck out of Downie. Supposedly tomorrow Capitals Insider will have a retrospective on where he came from. I will, somewhat selfishly, point you back to this blog this time last year, when Steph and Elly, Caps Chick and I had all decided that yeah, that invitee-kid at camp we nicknamed Fluffy was gonna do something big with himself.

News is also that Quintin Laing’s wife Aimee had their second child earlier this week, giving Hunter a younger brother. Welcome to chaos, Baby Laing! Bring your dad some good luck, okay?

And just to close on a hilariously high note, go check out the awesome picture of the Caps at their Season Ticket Holder party. With the proximity to Hersheypark, one wonders why the Bears haven’t thought of this yet?
