| 0:00.0 | We are off and running on the 2019-20 NHL season and the Caps get a very impressive win. |
| 0:06.7 | J.J. Regan, I thought they showed the hearts of champions in that game in St. Louis because |
| 0:12.0 | they withstood the early energy in the building and they got to win in overtime. |
| 0:17.1 | Yeah, to start the game, it looked like the Blues were going to do exactly what the Caps did to the Bruins last year, but the Caps stood it, took control in the second period, and walked away with a very important and impressive win. |

| 1:29.6 | win in St. Louis. |
| 1:31.1 | And I want to start with the hero of the night, JJ, and Jacob Bron. |
| 1:34.8 | And I thought he had a game where he was determined to be a difference maker and clearly |
| 1:40.6 | is a guy who is not going to rest on the laurels of a 24-goal season. |
