The
Caps got lit up last night, losing
7-3 to the Thrashers. What I found most disturbing last night (other than the awful penalty killing) was that, for the second time in two games, the defence left Kolzig totally exposed. He has faced a total 76 shots in two games! The Caps play the Thrashers again in Atlanta this evening.
D.C. United closed in on the top spot in the Eastern Conference when they beat Real Salt Lake
3-1 during midweek. A win against arch rivals the MetroStars tonight, and a New England loss to the Kansas City, would see United go top. It promises to be an interesting game, as both teams still have quite a lot to play for.
