Washington is coming off a shootout loss to the Minnesota Wild on the road, where the Capitals gave up a late tying goal and eventually lost in a shootout. Fucale made 21 saves and set an NHL record, at minutes, 7 seconds for the longest shutout streak to open an NHL career. You talk about the first goal and then they tie it up at the end and win in a shootout. So, it leaves you with a really lousy taste in your mouth.
But I thought the guys put up a pretty good effort. Despite on this slide, you can never count the Capitals out for as long as Alex Ovechkin is available. His 51 points 24 goals, 27 assists has him in the Hart Trophy category near the mid-way part of the season.
He leads the Capitals in both categories by a country mile. With the likelihood of Ilya Samsonov getting back in goal, he likely wants to avenge himself for giving up five against the St. Louis Blues the other day. On home ice, the Capitals are due for getting back in the win column even though the Bruins are coming off an impressive road win given their situation. I like Washington in this situation.
