Happy Anniversary Cappy

Today is the 1 year anniversary of Jack Capuano's first game behind the Isles bench.  Capuano replaced Scott Gordon on November 15th after a 4-10-3 start.   Capuano's team lost to Tampa 4-2 one year ago tonight.  The Isles would go 1-8-2 in the first 11 under Capuano before they started their three-month run to respectability in mid-December.

The Isles are 4-8-3 entering play tonight.  They come into tonight's game 1-game over .500 for their history.  They have not been below .500 all-time since 1978.
