"Ryan Leonard handed Anthony Beauvillier a perfect pass to give the Caps an early lead. Vincent Trochek neutralized that lead with a tip-in in the final minute of the first period. Canadian patriot Tom Wilson finished a monster shift with his 20th goal, followed by Justin Sourdif (!) scoring on the power play (!!) assisted by Ovechkin (!!!). Adam Fox fired an outside shot that deflected off Nic Dowd to make it 3-2 Caps after two periods."
"Tom Wilson was named to Team Canada today. He threw a monster hit on Laba, scored a great goal on Quick, taunted Gavrikov, fought Carrier, drew an instigator, scored again, and set up an empty-netter. He got a Gordie Howe Hat Trick. He's got 21 goals already and 200 in his career. We published our Patreon-exclusive newsletter this morning, but I'll share one bit from it. Here is Tom Wilson's career vs Brad Marchand's, according to GAR:"
