"📸: kurly from #crashers The Washington Capitals' blowout win over the Columbus Blue Jackets was exactly the kind of game everyone needed right now. Jakob Chychrun kept his stat line lively with a smart read to beat Elvis Merzlikins, 1-0 Caps. In the second period, Tom Wilson got the final touch on a beautiful sequence with Sourdif and Protas. Chychrun got his second of the night on the power play - yes, you read that right."
"With his first period goal, Jakob Chychrun's point streak reaches 8 games. He's got 5 goals and 6 assists in the stretch. He was low-key kinda stinky in that Tampa game, but otherwise he's been terrific. He flirted with the Hat Chych a few times but couldn't make it happen. Sometimes I get confused about which "Blue" goalie I'm supposed to dislike: Lumbus' Elvis Merzlikins or St. Louis' Jordan Binnington."
