April got off to a very rough start for the Washington Capitals. The Caps went 4-3-0 in their first seven games of the month, grabbing eight of a possible 14 points. Don’t let that record fool you, however, because some of those games were far too close for comfort and involved a few nearly-blown leads. Two of the Caps’ losses came against the Islanders, including a miserable 8-4 New York win on April 1, and the third loss came against the Bruins in their lone home game of the seven game stretch. They did win their final two games of the season against the Devils, although one required overtime, and took wins over both Boston and Buffalo.
