Back in The Winning Column

We needed to shake off the bad weekend and come out against one of the hottest teams in the NHL and get two points.

We needed to shake off the bad weekend and come out against one of the hottest teams in the NHL and get two points. I was very pleased to see Nicklas Backstrom come out strong and get us on the scoring sheet with a blast from the slot which Kozlov deflected in for our first goal. It was great to see Alex Ovechkin – on OvechKam night – score two goals and the last one being the game winner. And it was a treat to see Olie Kolzig get his 300th career win at home.  Thanks to the near sellout crowd too. You were loud and proud. We appreciate your patronage and support. Go Caps!
