If you were looking for a clean, well-played hockey game between the Capitals and Senators last night, well…you were probably sorely disappointed.
Fans of chaos, however, were in for quite a treat, as this game had a little bit of everything (except for good hockey, but who really wants that??).
The Caps erased deficits of 1-0, 3-1, and 4-2 to scrape out a point from a game in which they looked disconnected, tired, and sloppy for the majority of the game, save for a few bursts of competence and a final push to force overtime. They took two too many men penalties in less than four minutes to start the game.
