Some comments after the Caps win their 2nd game without Ovie
The Caps are 13-8-2 in games played without #8–interesting
Nicholas Backstrom scored the clinching shootout goal
Coach Adam Oates commented on the absence of Ovie– “You’re still patching the dike in a sense. You don’t want to lose anybody, let alone your star,” Oates said. “It proves your team is still a solid hockey team.”
Neuvirth had 32 saves and basically saved the Caps who were not as sharp as on Friday night
Former Cap Tomas Fleischmann tied the game on a power play which ended a streak of 35 power play kills for Washington
