Caps vs. Islanders Recap: Isles Clean Up 4-3

Despite goals from the captain and a hopefully-resurgent Andre Burakovsky, the Washington Capitals tripped and fell into fish food Tuesday night, as the New York Islanders claimed a 4-3 victory.

Here's Tuesday night's Plus/Minus:

Plus: Andre Burakovsky, Guy Who May Be Very Good But Better Start Scoring If He Wants to Get Paaiiiid, got back on the score sheet, recording his fourth goal of the season.

Minus: There are some big time problems with this Capitals defense. Who can you trust? This blue line unit needs to start being held accountable for its failures.
