Capitals vs. Sharks Recap: Caps Swim Away with 5-1 Win

Did Alex Ovechkin score? He did – and welcome to The List, Georgi Romanov! Plus: We’ve talked about this before, but the Caps have occasionally struggled with their starts. Today they had no such issue, jumping out to a three-goal lead and looking very comfortable doing so as they outshot the Sharks 17-3 in the opening frame. That’ll do. Minus: In the second period and the early part of…

Capitals-Sharks: How the Game Was Won

The Capitals came into San Jose yesterday looking to bounce back after a frustrating loss in LA – and maybe get a little revenge for a Sharks’ overtime win back in DC earlier this season. Mission accomplished for the good guys, as they took a 5-1 win out of Silicon Valley and ended their California trip on a high note. The goal from Trevor van Riemsdyk in the third period to regain the three…

Capitals Temperature Check: Week 22

Throughout the season, we’ll check in on the Washington Capitals to see which players, positions, and/or systems are hot and who is, well, not. Today we’ll be assessing the team based on their games from March 10-16. [Editor’s Note: Friendly reminder that this is merely meant as a look at the last few weeks in isolation, and is not a commentary on a player or system’s overall success this…

Capitals vs. Red Wings Recap: Caps Drown Detroit in Third for 4-1 Win

Did Alex Ovechkin score? No. Plus: The Red Wings have one of the best power plays in the NHL and the Caps did not give them a chance to use it, as they refrained from taking even a single penalty the whole game. The Caps are a strong five-on-five team, so keeping the game at even strength will always give them the advantage over most teams and that worked tonight. Minus: The Caps gave up…

Capitals-Red Wings: How the Game Was Won

The Red Wings must have nightmares about playing the Caps in the third period. Just less than two weeks ago, they took a 2-1 lead into the third only to see the Caps go on a four goal tear to win the game. Last night, with the game tied, the Caps again used a big final frame to win, this time adding three goals in the third period. But while the goals were great (and obviously necessary)…

Capitals vs. Flyers Game Thread 3/20

Fresh off a solid return home against the Red Wings, the Caps continue their work at Capital One Arena as they welcome in Metro Division pals, the Flyers, for the final game in the season series between the two longtime rivals. First, some admin stuff: Look for the same lines as before, and while the goalie rotation has officially ended, that doesn’t mean both goalies won’t get some…

Playoff-Bound Capitals Have Come a Long Way, Babes

Last night, the Capitals clinched a playoff spot, becoming the first team this season to do so. While their presence in the postseason hasn’t really been in doubt for months, and although the clinching game itself was maybe a little closer than one would have liked (thanks in part to John Tortorella continuing his streak of being the singular most annoying coach in the league)…it’s still an…

Capitals vs. Panthers Recap: Caps Outlast Cats in 6-3 Win

Did Alex Ovechkin score? Sadly, no, although he did grab a couple of sweet assists. Plus: After a six-goal explosion, 13 different Caps registered at least a point in this one, including six points from the defense. That’s a nice, balanced attack. Minus: As a fan, that first period was very fun to watch – but you have to think neither the Caps’ coaching staff nor Logan Thompson…

Capitals-Panthers: How the Game Was Won

The Caps rode another solid offensive performance to a big win over the Florida Panthers last night, not only extending their current winning streak to four games (and their ninth in the last ten games overall) but successfully completing a sweep of their season series against the reigning Stanley Cup champions. After a wild first period that saw the two teams deadlocked at three apiece…

Capitals Re-Sign Jakob Chychrun

The Washington Capitals have taken care of one more bit of unfinished business as the season winds down, getting a deal done with blueliner Jakob Chychrun to keep him in DC for the next eight seasons at $9M AAV. Here’s more from the team: The Washington Capitals have re-signed defenseman Jakob Chychrun to an eight-year, $72 million contract extension, senior vice president and general…
