The early returns on the month of December have been a bitter pill after a scorching-hot November for Alex Ovechkin and the Capitals. After blowing two third-period leads in a row to kick-off the month, the Caps took the home ice in their blue third jerseys looking to get right against the 12-9-0 Columbus Blue Jackets.
They succeeded, putting forth a dominant effort that resulted in a final score of 3-1.
Here’s Saturday night’s Plus/Minus:
Plus: Alex Ovechkin has scored his 750th career goal. It’s a nice round number, but we all know it’s just a stop on the side of the road to take a leak on the way to the hopeful final destination…
Minus: The biggest negative from this game has to be that Connor McMichael didn’t finish this with a goal…
