Did Alex Ovechkin score? Nope!

Did Ethen Frank score? He did!

Plus: The Caps have been looking for a full 60-minute effort where they take control of a game early and keep it for a couple of weeks now. Hell, at this point we’d be happy with cracking 20 SOG. They’ve also been needing to put forth that kind of effort against teams at the bottom of the standings. Tonight they accomplished both, putting together a great opening frame and then holding steady for the rest of the night to earn a workmanlike win over a team they should beat.

Minus: …Ovi didn’t score?

Our three stars:
*** Ethen Frank (1G)
** Logan Thompson (18 saves, first shutout as a Capital)
* Brandon Duhaime (1G, 1A)
