Closing Strong
Briefly

The Washington Capitals have demonstrated remarkable dominance in third periods this season. With a 22-1-1 record when leading after two periods, they showcase a strong ability to maintain leads. Their impressive third-period scoring sees them outscoring opponents 70-33 overall. In the last 20 games, the Caps have outscored rivals 30-8 in third periods, not allowing any goals against them during that span. The team's resilience has been highlighted by its goalies, achieving a 95.3 percent save rate on shots faced, showcasing both talent and tenacity.
Without our best tonight, to be able to grind through that game and dig in the third period, that just once again speaks to the character of the group.
The Capitals have outscored opponents 30-8 in the third period since Christmas, and ... have not been outscored in any of those 20 third periods.
