It was a week where the Washington Capitals got challenged and honestly could have lost all four games that were played. They were down 3-0 to Arizona but won in a shootout, were outplayed against the Flyers but won in a shootout, got beat up by the Canadiens for the worst loss this season and won in a shootout in Boston after a late tying goal by T.J. Oshie.
The offense wasn’t flying and the defense continues to be a question, at least for me. At the end of the day however it was a week where the Capitals went 3-1-0 and that, no matter how it’s accomplished is a successful week.
