The Capitals travelled to New Jersey Wednesday night after dispatching the Golden Knights and prepared for a conference contest the following evening. And tonight the Devils dispatched the defending Stanley Cup Champions 3 to 0 in almost effortless fashion behind a perfect performance from Keith Kinkaid.
Here’s Thursday night’s Plus/Minus:
Plus: Marcus Johansson finished the evening with one goal on two shots in 17 minutes of work. His goal, a deep shot, was uncharacteristic for the Swede but everyone’s favorite former Cap connected on the shot and looks happy in New Jersey.
Minus: Washington, playing their second set of back-to-back games in the past nine nights, looked tired the entire contest.
