Senators start strong, fade way too early in 7-2 shellacking by Capitals
Defence! *clap clap clap*We knew it was going to be ugly, so in a way, tonight’s game wasn’t a surprise at all. The defending Cup champions were going to walk all over a team whose top goal scorer was 18 years old. The fans who did bother to turn in were hoping for maybe some entertainment, and there was some, at least early on. But in the end, the inevitable happened, and the Senators fell 7-2 to the vastly superior Capitals.
