The Caps coach has decided to start the off-ice mind games, with these words to a local DC radio station:
"Well, the one thing, its reputation is far better than the actual building. I mean, it’s nothing. The locker rooms are horrible. The benches are horrible. There’s no room for anything. But the reputation of being in Madison Square Garden is what makes it famous. Also, our building’s a lot louder, too. So I mean, they can say what they want, but it’s not that loud in there.”
Interesting tactic. We'll see what the Rangers have to say in a bit.
