Capitals vs. Penguins Recap: Caps Roll Over Pens, 4-1

Photo courtesy of the Washington CapitalsDid Alex Ovechkin score? Nope.

Plus: The Caps have struggled at times lately with getting off to a strong start. That was not an issue tonight, as the good guys came out flying, throwing the body and getting on the board first courtesy of yet another Jakob Chychrun goal.

Minus: Shame to see Logan Thompson’s shutout streak snapped at 198:23, which is the third-longest in franchise history (h/t Tom Gulitti).

Our three stars:

*** Jakob Chychrun (1G)

** Pierre-Luc Dubois (1G, 1A)

* Aliaksei Protas (1G, 1A)
