While the Caps executed nicely on their third goal, showcasing excellent teamwork between Rasmus Sandin and Aliaksei Protas, they faltered in the game's final period, failing to secure that critical lead.
Letting a 3-1 lead slip indicates a lack of aggression, particularly with only two shots on goal in the third period, which is concerning when facing teams on back-to-back nights. They appeared tired when it mattered most.
Despite having opportunities to clinch the game, the Caps missed multiple chances to score into an empty net, a critical misstep when trying to seal a victory.
The standout players of the match were John Tavares and William Nylander, each with a goal and an assist, while Aliaksei Protas also contributed significantly with a goal and an assist.
