"Plus: Down Wilson, Sourdif and Chychrun, the Capitals were able to dig deep and give one of their most spirited efforts of the season in the third to pull off a game that looked D.O.A from the outset."
"Minus: The power play woes continued and looked like it was going to be the biggest reason why they would have lost this game...until it wasn't."
"Caps Player of the Game: Ethen Frank has made the most of his opportunity with the attrition the Caps have suffered lately, and that continued tonight with the two goals that swung momentum for Washington, and took things into the extra frame."
Washington mounted a dramatic comeback, rallying in the third period and winning in overtime after trailing early. Wilson, Sourdif and Chychrun were unavailable, forcing the team to rely on depth and grit. The power play remained ineffective and nearly cost the team the game before the rally. Ethen Frank scored two pivotal goals that swung momentum, forced overtime, and earned Player of the Game honors. The team’s third-period effort was one of its most spirited of the season, overcoming adversity to secure the victory.
