New Faces In New Places: Washington vs. Tampa Bay

Yesterday we debuted, with great help from EA Sports and XBox 360, a fun summer series to help us kill time and show off what all of the new free agent acquisitions and top draft picks will look like in their new duds.

Speaking of duds, today’s photo shoot features one team who played like duds all regular season and another one that played like duds, eventually, in the playoffs.

That’s right it’s time for the, perhaps, much improved Tampa Bay Lightning and the happy-to-stand-pat Washington Capitals.

Tampa Bay’s Victor Hedman excuses himself away from new Capitals forward Brendan Morrison.

Kurtis Foster unleashes the beast towards goaltender Simeon Varlamov.

New Capitals forward Mike Knuble dares to deke past Vincent Lecavalier.

Mattias Ohlund tries to escape the pursuit of Alexander Ovechkin.

Stephane Veilleux shows how to celebrate best on an empty net.

Now here’s where you folks come in. Who do you want to see next? Red Wings exiles donning the Indian in Chicago? Marian Gaborik in Ranger blues? Ryan Smyth and his mullet in Los Angeles?

You make the call and the top two choices get featured next – just make sure the teams you select have, you know, actually made a move or two. Leave your suggestions in the comments or find your way to Twitter to let me know. I’m pretty easy to find there.
