Capitals-Senators: How the Game Was Won

The Washington Capitals and Ottawa Senators seem determined to never play a boring game when the two clash. The final game of their regular-season series was no different, requiring overtime for the third time this season as the Caps saw multiple leads slip away to force the extra frame. Thankfully the Caps were able to snatch victory from the draws of defeat in this one…

Capitals-Rangers: How the Game Was Won

With last night’s win over the New York Rangers, the Capitals now have 40 wins and 88 points on the season. To put that in perspective, the Capitals won 40 games in total last season and finished with 91 points. This year’s Caps still have 20 games to go, so it’s safe to say this has been quite the turnaround. Games against the Rangers are always a bit more…frenetic than most matchups for the…

Capitals vs. Red Wings Recap: Caps Rebound and Roll to 5-2 Win

Did Alex Ovechkin score? Nope. Plus: After a slow start, the Caps not only found their legs late in the first but got stronger as the game went on, taking control of the action and even picking up two shorthanded goals. Minus: That slow start, though… really didn’t like that first goal in particular, which Logan Thompson clearly knew he should have had. Our three stars…

Capitals-Red Wings: How the Game Was Won

Last night’s game against the Red Wings didn’t get off to the best start for the Capitals, to say the least. Just 43 seconds into the first period, Dylan Larkin squeezed a shot in between Logan Thompson’s arm and the post to give the Wings a 1-0 lead – and it seemed like it was going to be one of those nights. That feeling intensified when about five minutes later, a Trevor van Riemsdyk…

Capitals vs Kraken: Caps Wake Up, Take 4-2 Win Against Kraken

Did Alex Ovechkin score? Yes. Plus: The game could have gotten out of control if the Caps penalty killers didn’t show up. The Caps only got one power play while the Kraken had four chances. The Caps penalty killer killed off all four. Minus: The Kraken are a mediocre team that are playing very tired. The Caps should have owned the game from the beginning but they really didn’t until the…

Capitals-Kraken: How the Game Was Won

Sunday’s afternoon game against Kraken wasn’t looking like the Capitals best. The Kraken are a mediocre team who were playing quite tired. The Caps really should have taken control of the game off the bat and never let it go. But through forty minutes it was a real back and forth with consistency issues with the Caps. In the third period, however, the Capitals finally showed up to play and…

Capitals vs. Ducks Game Thread 3/11

Despite currently being on a four-game winning streak, the Capitals have some room for improvement in their game – namely, stronger starts, as they’ve let other teams get the jump on them and had to come back far too often of late. They’ll look to nip that in the bud when they pay a visit to the Pond in Anaheim to take on the Ducks, kicking off their annual California trip. First…

Capitals @ Ducks Recap: Protas’ First Hat Trick Fuels Caps to Mighty 7-4 Win

Did Alex Ovechkin score? No, but he did stay hot with three assists. Plus: Aliaksei Protas’ first career hat trick? Aliaksei Protas first career hat trick! Also of note tonight: both Tom Wilson and Jakob Chychrun hit career highs in points tonight.

Capitals vs. Kings Recap: Dull Night for All in 3-0 Caps Loss

Did Alex Ovechkin score? No, but neither did anyone else so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Plus: Darcy Kuemper tripping Pierre-Luc Dubois was kind of funny. Charlie Lindgren made some good saves. Um…other than that, the lone positive is probably that we don’t have to watch the Kings again unless the two teams happen to meet in the final round of the playoffs. Minus: This game was close until it wasn’t…
