Plus: Seeing Alex Ovechkin’s name on the scoresheet will always be a plus.
Minus: After back-to-back solid defensive efforts, tonight’s game was a bit too loose by the Capitals – although unlike in previous years, at least they were able to keep up with the track meet and never really looked like they were being outskated.
