Closing out a home-and-home series against Philadelphia the Capitals hosted the Flyers and were stymied again. Washington loses consecutively for the first time since early December.
Here’s Saturday evening’s Plus/Minus:
Plus: Each and every Alex Ovechkin backhanded goal deserves a special shoutout. The strike is home goal number four hundred of his career.
Minus: Washington’s power play. They have been held without a man advantage point in five of their last six contests.
More notes on the game:
- In the first frame’s second half Philadelphia grab the first lead.
