Looking to get right amidst a modest case of the midseason doldrums, it looked like a date with the lowly 11-20-2 Ottawa Senators could be just what the doctor ordered. The Caps got off to a slow start, but two Alex Ovechkin goals (eggplant emoji) got the game to overtime, where Nicklas Backstrom sealed the deal. Caps win 3-2.
Plus: Ovi scored. Twice. Win or lose, these occasions becomes larger and larger each time they transpires.
Minus: A slow start against a bad team.
