Capitals Acquire Anthony Beauvillier from Pittsburgh Penguins
27-year-old forward has recorded 20 points (13g, 7a) in 63 games this season
The Washington Capitals have acquired forward Anthony Beauvillier from the Pittsburgh Penguins for Washington’s second-round pick in the 2025 NHL Draft, senior vice president and general manager Chris Patrick announced today.
This year's Oscars telecast is flying under the radar, probably in part to a lack of good, yet alone great movies. Conan O'Brien is hosting, so there is (some level of) hope, but regardless of the caliber, predictions must be made. If nothing else, this could be the most difficult Oscars to predict in recent memory.

Men’s Basketball Drops Rock Fight With George Mason, 53-50
The rematch between George Washington and George Mason after last month's double-overtime contest in Fairfax resulted in every bit of the slugfest fans would expect from the nearby rivals. In a game that saw the GW Revs climb back from a 13-point hole with 10 minutes to go to take a two-point lead with 1:56 left, GW couldn't hold on as GM survived a 53-50 squeaker after a buzzer-beating 3-point try from the Buff & Blue was off.

| The Hound Burger at The Hunter's Hound |
Tis' the season to visit an Irish pub (sort of) in Chevy Chase, Maryland. The Hunter's Hound doesn't ooze Ireland, unless you count a few hosts in green sweaters, but it was openly cheerful, clean and loud. Reservations help, but when you're walking in with Mr. Smooth himself (the legendary Arch Campbell) primo spot tables magically appear. It was busy, but we were served in a timely manner (thank you Zack) minus a water refill or two. Arch and I opted for an Irish Soda Bread opener ($4.50) followed by a couple of Hound Burgers with French fries ($18 each.)
