Highlights from the Game
The game is under way and the Washington Capitals took no time proving just how good there are down the middle, scoring a beautiful goal on a three way pass with of course you guessed it Alexander Ovechkin at the center of it all. Then as if to not be out-played Connor McDavid rushes down the ice making a nice pass to Yakupov who missed but then centered it to Pouliot who nicely scored, tying the game 1-1, that makes it 7 points in 8 games thus far for Connor McDavid.
The Washington Capitals answered back not long after Pouliot scored. Then Taylor Hall and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins took over and set up a nice goal by Klinkhamer. The First period is over and late in the opener the Capitals took the lead once again as they out-played the Edmonton Oilers in there own end, making it 3-2 after one.
The second period started with a power play for the Edmonton Oilers and Connor McDavid did not take long to capitalize (no pun intended) putting the puck past the Capitals netminder. Well it looks like a run and gun game tonight for the Caps answers the Oils goal with a break away goal, making it 4-3. Then they add a couple of more chasing Nilsson from the net and with that the Oilers respond with a beautiful goal by Taylor Hall and now the score is 6-4.
The third period is under way in Edmonton as they try to come back against the Washington Capitals who lead 6-4. The Oilers are about to go on the Power Play, hopefully Connor McDavid and the gang can get pick up one here.
The game is now over and the Edmonton Oilers lost 7-4 to the Washington Capitals. The show really was not about Ovechkin or McDavid but another player who had 5 points for Washington, a career high for him. Cheers for now.
