Your savory breakfast links:

• Taking a look at the organizational depth after the second month of the season. [Rink, NoVa Caps]
• Previews of tonight’s stampede to Calgary from Vogs, AP, NBCSW, Peerless, NoVa Caps, and be sure to swing by our SB Nation pals over at Matchsticks & Gasoline for the view from behind enemy lines.
• A few leftovers from the stumble in Seattle Thursday night. [S&S, RMNB, Davy Jones Locker Room]
• That game saw Anthony Mantha play just under 11 minutes, which is somewhat surprising given his numbers. So what’s up? [RMNB]
• Conor Sheary was almost an afterthought in the post-COVID NHL, until he found a new home in DC. Short King reigns supreme. [WHN]
• The Caps, Flyers, and Avs have all had massive injuries to start the season, and handling it differently (sure, still having MacKinnon, Makar, and others doesn’t hurt, right?) [AP]
• So let’s take a closer look at those injury concerns facing the Caps. [WHN]
• Let’s not toss Peter Laviolette out just yet... but when the team does move on (with coaches, it’s always a “when”, not “if”), could Hershey’s Todd Nelson be next up? [NoVa Caps]
• Finally, happy 56th birthday to Ken Lovsin!
