"In the third, the first 12 or so minutes just weren't good, and I think they had a tough time dealing with the Maple Leafs sitting back and just counter-attacking. They eventually figured things out, though, and after scoring the game-tying goal, took control of the rest of regulation. I don't like seeing Toronto post seven five-on-five high-danger chances in that last frame, though."
"Jakob Chychrun, holy schmoley. He now has goals in five straight games and points in ten straight, the latter tying a franchise record for defensemen. During his streak, he has 13 points (7g, 6a) and is on pace for 75 points (33g, 42a) this season. Really great pass from Ryan Leonard to set Chychrun up for the game-winner. Really good to see Connor McMichael score in two straight and extend his point streak to three games."
The Washington Capitals trailed 2-0 early but scored four unanswered goals to defeat the Toronto Maple Leafs 4-2. Toronto sat back and counter-attacked in the third, creating several high-danger chances before Washington regained control after the game-tying goal. Jakob Chychrun has goals in five straight games and points in ten straight, tying a franchise record for defensemen and accumulating 13 points during the streak. Connor McMichael scored in two straight games, recorded strong shot and scoring-chance numbers, and has nine points in his last eight games. Logan Thompson allowed the first goal but finished with 20 saves on 22 shots. The Capitals are 6-1-1 in their last eight games at Capital One Arena.
