Plus: The Caps got off to a great start, scoring first with a blast from Martin Fehervary – a seemingly good omen, as they’ve won ten-straight games when scoring first coming into tonight.
Minus: Caps just couldn’t get a bounce tonight, while the Sabres got most of them. Just how it goes sometimes, and it came at the worst time for the Caps.
Key Moment: Alexander Alexeyev sent a pretty pass through the slot to a wide open Connor McMichael who gathered the puck and either shot it wide or the goalie got a piece of it.
