Led by none other than the great eight himself, the Washington Capitals overcame a 2-1 third period deficit for a 4-2 win over the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday night at
Capital One Arena.
It was a natural hat trick in the span of 4:24, three consecutive goals to flip a 2-1 score into 4-2 and send Capitals fans home happy even though many of them once again lost a hat.
In the blink of an eye, the greatest goal scorer of our generation turned the game around and lifted the Caps to a huge win. He now has 40 goals on the season and needs two from 700.
