Which service does Brian Burke use less: statisticians or hair stylists?

Wednesday’s loss to the Edmonton Oilers didn’t “sit well” with the Washington Capitals. With all the puck possession but not enough scoarage, they’ll be trying to right that wrong with a late game against the Calgary Flames. No, seriously, it’s super late. This game is going to run your Saturday night. 10 PM on CSN.

What You’re Missing on TV

It’s 10 PM on Saturday. There’s nothing on– unless you want to watch Child’s Play 2 or Scary Movie 3. Goodness, those movies are awful.

Oh wait! The original Village of the Damned is on TCM if you get that channel. That movie is terrific. A classic.
