Last night was a good one on the scoreboard, folks. All three of the Philadelphia Flyers, Detroit Red Wings, and Washington Capitals all lost in regulation. I was keeping tabs on all three scores and then an eye on the games themselves after we got back from drinks—three hockey games on one 13-inch laptop screen—and I watched the Red Wings and Capitals both blow leads to lose in regulation. Washington led 2-0 and gave up the game-winner with less than two minutes left.
The New York Islanders are now third in the Metro, a point better than Detroit and Washington and even in points with the Flyers, but have played one fewer game.
