It’s been a rare occurrence but it happened this past week via the Columbus Blue Jackets. That loss coming on Monday in a 5-2 fashion.
The Capitals rebounded later in the week. They took down Boston, what’s new? Then they went down to Florida to beat the Lightning. The loss to Columbus wasn’t great, but to rebound and beat two eastern conference contenders, or at least what we assume are contenders in the Lightning’s case, those are two terrific wins.
Enough about the unimportant stuff. The games are one thing, but what everyone cares about is our stars of the week.
