As the Washington Capitals head north to Prudential Center to take on the New Jersey Devils, they have one thing set in mind.
Leave with a win and 2-points and play better defense. Even though they received 1-point against the Montreal Canadians, thanks to Tom Wilson’s equalizer late in third-period goal at the 19:39 mark, they still allowed too many breakaways giving the Canadians glorious opportunities to blow the game wide open.
If you’re a Capitals fan, you remember what happened the last time these two teams tilted back on January 11. The Devils came-out fast and gritty, scoring the, wait for it, games first goal.
