Once again, the Washington Capitals give up the first goal of the game. This has been happening since October. Bratt at the 7:05 mark of the first period receives a breakaway pass and dekes Samsonov for his 13th of the season.
However, the Capitals would cut into the Devils lead with a blistering shot from John Carlson that would be eventually be tipped in front by Tom Wilson at the 14:44 mark of the second period making it 2-1. It would stay at 2-1 for the rest of the second period.
The moment you all have been waiting for.
