Capitals vs. Blue Jackets Recap: Ovechkin Sends Elvis Packing in 3-2 OT Win

The Washington Capitals seem to love going into extra time these days, but as long as they keep collecting points, we’re not going to complain…too much. Tonight it was another overtime victory for the good guys, executed by the one, the only, Alex Ovechkin, who broke a 14-game goalless drought with his game-winning tally.

Plus: Alex Ovechkin finally scored a goal. That’s it, that’s the tweet.

Minus: The Caps were apparently looking for a repeat of last night, taking a 2-1 lead late into the third period and giving up the tying goal to force overtime.
