The Capitals returned to Philly for the second straight game and third in fourth games. After winning the the first two of this mini-series, it was a good bet that Philly and their fans wouldn’t let it be three in a row. but the Capitals defied them and won a close one.
Plus: The fourth line was part of three of the goals tonight. It’s nice when the big guns score but a team will not win a Cup without their fourth line being good, and the Capitals have a great one.
Minus: The second line containing Jakub Vrana, Evgeny Kuznetsov, and Daniel Sprong is a very fun line that has been good lately, but they can also be a little lackadaisical defensively.
