For the first time in over 400 days, the Washington Capitals played a home game in front of fans and from the moment the puck dropped to the final horn, they put on a show in front of fans in a 1-0 win over the New York Islanders.

1:29 into the game, Daniel Sprong brought the house down with a snipe in for his 10th goal of the season. It made the 2,100 fans in attendance sound like 20,000. Dmitry Orlov and Tom Wilson had the helpers.
