Tonight’s divisional matchup was the second half of a back-to-back for one team, and if you didn’t already know which team that was you would might have guessed incorrectly at first. In the end at least a point apiece in the end seemed fair, but even after giving up two power play goals, Washington walked away with the victory.
Here’s Friday night’s Plus/Minus:
Plus: Lucky number three. Travis Boyd now has three goals in three games, Nic Dowd had his first three-assist night and first three-point game, and Alex Ovechkin netted his second hat trick of the season.
