Staple steps in...
Leaving D.C. for NY for family matter, and colleague Arthur Staple will pinch hit on Rangers-Caps coverage.
Follow him at twitter.com/StapeNewsday and newsday.com, of course.
I see from reports from practice that Marc Staal (knee) did not skate in Arlington this morning. I was already en route north. Be back soon.....
