The Caps, although not at their peak, clearly are doing well in winning five straight and earning points in nine of their 11 games this season. But their first major hurdle might be approaching and it's not of their doing: swine flu.
Quintin Laing has been diagnosed with the disease, joining Colorado's Peter Budaj and Edmonton's Ladislav Smid as the only NHL players (so far) to be diagnosed. The Caps clearly are concerned and rightfully so. Hopefully for the Caps, this won't become a more serious situation.
In other news today:
*Tomas Fleischmann has returned from his conditioning stint in Hershey and has been returned to the active roster, meaning he's eligible for tomorrow's game in Atlanta.
*Boyd Gordon and Eric Fehr are still injured and most likely won't play against the Thrashers.
*Alexandre Giroux has been sent back to Hershey.
