Nope. The game you mention was played in Pittsburgh. The Caps wore their road black jerseys in that one. The picture above is from a game at MCI Center when the league still had teams in their home whites.

Those are dreaded Penguins in the picture so I’ll guess a playoff game. How about Game 4 of the 2001 ECQS, when Halpern scored in OT to give the Caps the win and tie the series 2-2? The Caps eventually lost the series anyway in 6 games, what else is new?

Quiz time: What game is the above picture from? HINT: It was taken after Jeff Halpern scored the most memorable goal of his career.

“The one-year deal worth $825,000 nets Halpern a $225k raise over last year and also gives the Princeton grad a chance to win the first playoff series of his career. Maybe even a championship.”
Ha, wherever he signed he would have had the same chance. This deal also gives him the chance to continue his line of disappointing first round defeats. But it’s good to have him back anyway.
