The Washington Capitals dominated our Pittsburgh Penguins last night in pretty much every department except on the scoreboard. They out hit our Penguins 44 to 24. They won 57% of the face-offs. And they out-shot the Penguins 34 – 25 (shot attempts were even more lopsided 72 – 50). Unfortunately for the Capitals but fortunately or Penguins, Jake Guentzel came to the rescue and the Penguins topped the Capitals in the only stat that counts goals.
After the 1st 17 seconds of the game I was ready believe the Penguins would be in for a long night.
