Capitals-Canadiens: How Game 2 Was Won

Like Game 1 of this series back on Monday, Game 2 was a tight, low-scoring affair that saw the Caps come out on top with the win. Unlike the series opener, however, the Caps took care of business in regulation – and did so in their typical resilient fashion.

After a scoreless first period, the Canadiens broke the seal on the scoring just over a minute into the second period, taking their first lead of the series courtesy of Christian Dvorak.

It would not last long.

Roughly two and a half minutes later, Connor McMichael would continue his strong night – and his strong series overall to this point – by tying things up.
