It hasn’t been the best week for the Washington Capitals. After finishing last week with an impressive win before the holiday break, the Caps have now lost back-to-back games. The most recent came in a shootout against the New Jersey Devils Thursday night at Verizon Center.
The Devils walked away with the 2-1 victory.
Despite the scoreboard, it was actually a dominating performance by the Caps. They outshot New Jersey 44-27 and seemed to be in control of the puck for much of the night. Unfortunately, Keith Kincaid was a stone wall in net for the Devils.
