"The Caps win a wild one over Edmonton, Leonard's patience pays off and more in today's Caps Clips. Your savory breakfast links: Alex Ovechkin only had one goal last night (the slacker); but we look back on a night about a year ago when he put up three on the Oilers. [Rink] Ryan Leonard has been focused on staying patient and not getting frustrated with the pucks not going in...seems to have worked. [THN]"
"After a bit of a slow start, Ovechkin is feeling more like himself these days. [DCBC] Meanwhile, Aliaksei Protas continues to struggle and hasn't looked like himself of late. [WaPo] The Caps certainly aren't where they were in the standings this time last year, or even in a playoff spot as Thanksgiving draws closer...but perhaps there's nothing to worry about. [S&S] Happy 37th birthday to Max Pacioretty! Finally, happy locker room!"
The Washington Capitals defeated the Edmonton Oilers in a wild game. Alex Ovechkin scored once in the recent game but previously had a three-goal performance against Edmonton about a year ago. Ryan Leonard emphasized patience and avoiding frustration as pucks failed to drop, a strategy that appears to be paying off. After a slow start, Ovechkin is beginning to feel more like his usual self. Aliaksei Protas continues to struggle and has not looked like himself lately. The Capitals sit lower in the standings than a year ago and are currently outside a playoff spot as Thanksgiving approaches. Max Pacioretty turned 37.
