If Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final turns out anything like Game 3, then we're all in for a real treat. There were no goals in the first period but the atmosphere inside the Capital One Arena was nothing short of electric as the hometown Washington Capitals relentlessly pressed.
The tension in the air was palpable as the second frame began. An early scramble in front of the Vegas Golden Knights' net eventually led to an Alex Ovechkin goal—who else would it be?—and the packed house came unglued in response.
The Great Eight tied a franchise record for most goals scored in a single playoff run with his 14th, and we have a feeling he'll be surpassing John Druce's longstanding mark before the end of this postseason.
