Capitals vs. Rangers Recap: Pre-Holiday Game Gets Away in 7-3 Loss

The Caps have been struggling to find their game of late, their recent slide coinciding (and not coincidentally) with the loss of Ryan Leonard a few weeks ago. The 20-year-old drew back into the lineup sooner than expected, and his return did seem to provide a spark to the team…until it didn’t, as the Caps let a one-goal lead slip away to lose to the hapless Rangers. Plus: For most of the…

Capitals vs. Rangers Game Thread 12/23/25

One more game before the holiday break, and one more chance for the Caps to get back on track. They’ll face a Rangers squad that has been up and down all season, much like the Caps – and have struggled a bit lately, also like the Caps, with just two wins in their last five (both past regulation). The Caps were much better in Sunday’s overtime loss than the previous game, so here’s hoping they can…

Capitals vs. Red Wings Game Thread 12/21/25

Okay, so yesterday’s home leg of the back-to-back, home-and-home set against the Red Wings…could’ve gone better. They get a chance to quickly put that loss behind them today, as they’re right back at it against the Wings up in Detroit. Here’s hoping they can find a little spark and avoid falling in too deep a hole for a second-consecutive game. First, some admin stuff: Time for a…

Capitals vs. Red Wings: How the Game Was Lost

It’s possible that no one told the Caps that yesterday’s game started at 12:30 p.m., as it took half the game until the Caps finally started to looking like their usual selves. At that point, however, they were already down four goals and no matter how good you are that’s hard to come back from that. They did make an attempt, scoring two goals late in the game (three if you include the goal taken…

Capitals vs. Devils Recap: Caps Back to Winning in 4-3 OT Win

Heading into the break, the Caps let a one-goal lead slip away in the third period and very quickly fell into a very deep hole to the Rangers. Tonight’s game seemed destined to go the same way after two quick strikes by the Devils to first tie, then go ahead – but the Caps (led by a resurgent third by Alex Ovechkin) made sure to snag an all-important point Plus: How about the Caps not letting…

Capitals vs. Devils: How the Game Was Won

The Capitals have not had a ton of success this season with games that have gone past regulation, picking up just one win prior to last night (a 3-2 OT win over Tampa way back in mid-October). So the general sentiment heading into overtime in Newark last night, against one of the league’s better overtime/shootout teams, was likely that of dread. But no one told Jakob Chychrun the Caps weren’t…

Capitals vs. Panthers Recap: Infraction-Filled Night in 5-3 Caps Loss

Caps-Cats games are rarely dull, and tonight’s game was no exception…although perhaps this one had a bit too much action, and not of the good kind, in a penalty-filled affair that ultimately went the wrong way for the good guys. Plus: Two goals for Tom Wilson tonight, you absolutely love to see it. Minus: We try not to pile on the refs too much around these parts, because it’s a fast…
