Plus: Hard to pick just one positive out of this one, so we’ll go with the overall bounceback…iness. Bouncebackitude? After a shockingly lackluster outing against the Penguins last night (and a bit of sluggishness in the opening frame), the Caps took over this one in the second and never let up. Second of back-to-backs against a non-rival on the road and they put together that kind of performance? A huge plus.
Minus: That first period was kind of…meh.
Our Three Stars:
*** Logan Thompsn (24 saves, 7 straight wins to start his Caps career – franchise record)
** Dylan Strome (3 assists)
* Alex Ovechkin (2 goals)
