Congratulations are in order for the Hershey Bears, who beat the Binghamton Senators 4-1 on Wednesday evening at the Giant Center. It is always encouraging to see the Bears play with the same level of intensity, even when they lose four key players to the 'big' club with such short notice. Luckily, the depth of the Caps organization means that those promoted temporarily from the Stingrays have the talent to fill the roster and help maintain the winning streak that the Bears are riding right now. Much was said about how banged up Binghamton were on their previous visit to the Giant Center, and that the embarrasing defeat they suffered was a result of a lengthy road trip and last minute call ups. Well, the Bears proved last night that in this league, you have to adapt quickly to the sudden line up changes and keep your game simple and conservative in order to win. Of course, two more goals by the big 'O' are always welcomed - way to go Oskar.
Congratulations also to Ben Boudreau, who has been assigned to the Stingrays. You can't have too many Boudreau's in the Caps system. As for Bruce, a big pat on the back for his induction into the AHL Hall of Fame. Way to go Bruce - we will keep believing! While I'm handing out accolades, kudos too for John Carlson and his entry level contract. Hopefully he develops and spends some time here at Hershey in preparation for his rise to the NHL. Carlson impressed me at the rookie camp earlier this year, and I am glad to see that the Caps rewarded this talented defenseman.
