These Leftover questions from this week’s THN Weekly with Andre Carter were sent on Monday, hence the topics of discussion are slightly dated. I apoligize for the delay in posting this.

When times become increasingly tougher and the end is not near, it is then that a person, or in this case, a team, determines their true character and desire to be successful.

Islanders at Capitals – 10/30/2009

June 1, 2025October 30, 2009 by Jake Russell

The Capitals enter tonight’s contest seeking their seventh straight win following a victory over the Atlanta Thrashers last night. The team, especially Alexander Ovechkin, is on a tear and has brought about this winning streak with their continued offensive power and improved defense. Against Atlanta, Ovechkin tied an NHL record with six multi-goal games in one month. In 12 games, Ovechkin has 13 goals and 22 points, both tops in the NHL. Over the past week and a half, the team has also received positive contributions from young call-ups Keith Aucoin and Alexandre Giroux, which is a great sign for a team already stacked with veteran star power.

Leftovers – Week 7 2009

August 21, 2026October 22, 2009 by Jake Russell

Here are this week’s leftovers from THN Weekly with Andre Carter.

THN: Haynesworth apparently left to go to the locker room with about 25 seconds left in the game but he was also the one guy to make his voice heard and try to motivate guys and get them to step their game up after the game. Is that true? If so, why did he leave so early and what did he say?

With their loss to yet another winless team, this time to the then 0-5 Kansas City Chiefs, the Redskins may have hit rock bottom. At least that’s how the majority of fans and media, local and national, view things. But not Andre Carter, who has been on both sides of the fence, having played both … Read more

THN Weekly with Andre Carter – Week 6 2009

August 21, 2026October 15, 2009 by Jake Russell

For the third time this season, the Redskins gave an opponent their first victory of the season. The difference between Sunday’s loss to the Carolina Panthers and the previous two is that the Redskins led at halftime for the first time all season and squandered a 15-point lead in the third quarter. Arguably the biggest … Read more

THN Weekly with Andre Carter – Week 5 2009

August 21, 2026October 8, 2009 by Jake Russell

One of the prevailing pieces of information to come out of Sunday’s 16-13 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers was that, despite being booed on their way to the locker room at the beginning of halftime by the hometown crowd, the Redskins did not take an emotional “Rah! Rah!” approach, but rather a calm, focused … Read more
