Did Alex Ovechkin score? He did! Again! 25 to go.
Plus: The Caps got absolutely steamrolled in the first period, but they did a good job the rest of the way to slow down the Red Wings, dominate possession, and keep them from making things even more lopsided. Some of that was score effects, of course, but good job nonetheless.
Minus: That first period, though…woof. Anytime you give up four goals to a team in a single frame, it’s bad. Giving up four goals to a not-very-good Red Wings team, worse.
