As Our Washington Capitals continue their retooling, we delve into the possibilities that bubble up from the soup that is NHL Free Agency. Jacob Michael of the Sudden Death Sports Podcast joins us again to help try to make sense of the Caps recent activities and what makes the most sense (if at all) for this team.

April is starting off with a thud as Our Caps come ever closer to officially missing the playoffs. To ease the pain, we call on Laura Bach and John Blackburn otherwise known as that Rockin' Caps fan combo The CAPtasTROHPIES.
If you're not familiar with their work, you should be. They are the super awesome duo that posts the song parodies on Twitter (@captastrophies) whenever one of Our Caps scores a goal.
They tell their stories both on how they became fans of hockey and of the Caps as well as the adorable (Yes, dammit! We do adorable sometimes here!) story on how they met. They also give a bit of a peek behind the curtain and talk about their creative process as well as their work lives.
Speaking of which, Laura describes her work with the Gaithersburg branch of Fleet Feet which helps with a specialized outfitting process to provide optimum footwear for active lifestyles. They are a supportive (pun intended) business in the DMV, their mission statement is below:
"The Fleet Feet Outfitting Process focuses on providing you with running shoes that fit properly, gear that improves your experience and knowledge to help you move your best—whether that’s a 10-minute walk or a three-hour marathon. Whether you want to walk farther, tackle your first race, or chase down a PR, our specialized fit process combines the best in customer service with insightful technology to deliver unbeatable comfort mile after mile."
If you are in need of their services, please look them over today and they can and will take care of all your footwear needs!
Believe it or not on top of all that they are part of their own band--I.S.F.L.Y. Listen in for what it actually stands for, but make sure the kids are out of the room!
Oh and yes they both provide their own informed insights to how the Caps have been doing this season as we go over the three games played. Tune in for a hilariously entertaining chat with two wonderously inspiring Caps fans!

Anna and I are proud to welcome to the show Sammie Silber of Washington Hockey Now in honor of Women's History Month.
In something of a departure of the show we focus solely on today's game against the Minnesota Wild. Sammi offers her professional opinion on the team's fortunes as well as her thoughts on the womens' game.
We also both quiz Sammi on a few....personal things, but nothing too ridiculous. Sorry guys :) Tune in for a truly interesting and fun conversation with one of the the DMV's best and brightest hockey minds.

Anna and I go over last week's Caps games where we see a marked improvement in the team's competitveness thanks largely to their trade deadline acquisitions.
Our apologies beforehand as we both seemingly had a case of having a massive brain fart before recording but as always we do our best to give it a listen!
We do not unfortunately have a guest available for this week to help celebrate Women's HIstory Month with us so instead we put the spotlight on several very interesting and worthwhile Women owned businesses right here in the DMV:
Cameron's Coffee and Chocolates via Every1canwork
Fingers crossed as the Caps ramp up their game for the playoff run...
