Coming off a loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets on Friday night the Capitals concluded their five game homestand by hosting Arizona at Capital One Arena. The Coyotes came into town and surprised many by upsetting the defending Stanley Cup Champions 4 to 1 in relatively easy fashion.
Here’s Sunday night’s Plus/Minus:
Plus: In his return to the Washington lineup John Carlson skated in his 623rd career contest, surpassing Sylvain Cote for 6th place in franchise history for games played by a defenseman. Congrats John!
Minus: Washington was unable to take advantage of the night’s favorable match up. Arizona played in Pittsburgh last night and arrived to Washington, D.C. late but Rick Tocchet’s team was quicker and sharper all evening.
