Capitals vs. Lightning Recap: Caps Lose 2-1 (SO) After Playoff-Style Game

Plus: A shorthanded Caps team went toe to toe with a great team and played very well. That’s all you can really ask for from a team. It sucks to lose but the boys left it all on the ice and brought it all the way through a shootout. That’s how it goes sometimes.

Minus: Nick Jensen’s negated goal. If the Caps weren’t offsides by inches, they win the game, or at least would have been up 2-1. Caps must still lead the league in waved-off goals.

Key Moment: It might seem odd to say this, but the Lightning’s goal was a pretty key moment.
