The biggest Caps news of the week.

But only because it's a slow week.

The Atlanta Thrashers have signed former Caps defenseman Joel Kwiatkowski to an undisclosed contract. In the case of the Thrashers, I hope "undisclosed" means "one-way ticket to Chicago of the AHL."

If Kiwi does show up at one of those always intense Southeast Showdowns, do we "whoop!" Kiwi? Or was he so bad that he's not even worthy of that?
