And Alex Ovechkin made sure we got them. What a performance! He broke his nose and cut his face but he scored four goals with the winner coming in overtime. He had five points in the game.

That was unbelievable!
Had to beat them 3 times for those 2 points.
Almost lost in the excitement of last night’s win was the fact that players, fans and staff from Hershey made the trek to the Verizon Center. As a Caps season ticket holder having made the reverse trek to Hershey for this past Saturday’s game against to see what the Bears’ website called “perhaps their most impressive come-from-behind of the season, scoring five unanswered goals to win 5-3 over the Binghamton Senators” in front of a sellout crowd, I have to tell you we have an absolutely terrific farm team a couple of hours up the road. Encourage Caps fans to take advantage of the opportunity to go up to Hershey to catch a game or two.
The officiating last night was a tale of two referees. Don Van Massenhoven (who may be the best ref in the NHL) was his usual steady self, but the other guy was very inconsistent. Hopefully after the game Don pointed out some things to him.
Alex was awesome, as was Kozlov. Green played well too, but the defense again had some meltdowns, especially at the end of the periods (even in the first, the Habs didn’t score, but Jurcina looked a bit lost with about 3 seconds to go in the period…thankfully Poti was there to bail him out then…
