After a surprisingly decent first (considering the team’s previous meeting), this matchup between the Caps and Blue Jackets slowed down considerably. This favored Columbus, which tallied very early and late in the third to snatch a 3-2 win.

Ten more notes on the game:
The Caps are a very good team, but they need to figure out how to get past teams that make it tough to carry the puck up the ice. If Columbus can outplay Washington with this strategy consistently, more talented opponents will pick up on it, and the remainder of the season will be an uphill climb for Washington.
