Along came the 6th and 7th and the lead and game were lost 6-3 to the surging Rays. Just a note, Arod is supposed to make his return to the Yankees Friday at Camden Yards.

Alex and Crosby matched hat tricks last night at Verizon but he Caps came out on top due to another goal by #39 Dave Steckel. #8 was incredible as usual actually putting the game out of reach with his 2 third period goals.
