Caps Down Atlanta back to back

The Caps swept the home and home impressivley too winning both contests by 2 goals. They started this one real strrong scoring thrice in the first period allowing just one in that frame one in the next and that was all the streong rookie Simeon Varlomov would allow while making 29 saves and the Caps PK not allowing a goal in six tries while the Caps had just one go on the man adavantage an abberviated try lasting only 30 some seocmnds. The refs in this one did not allow the best PP in the NHL to even try silly zebras (Chris Rock Madagascar silly zebra) HAHAHA. Felichamn got the scoring rolling early when he passed behind the goalie through the crease which hit a D sakte and then i think Pothier should have been credited with the goal but in hoiuse ruling was Fleichman's 19th from Pothier and Backstrom. Then Peverley would strike on a break wheer he went baclhand and beat the rookie. Then Kozlov would recive a pretty feed and backhand one past the scrambling goalie for his 13th from Backstrom and Felichamn. Smein would add another when he stole the puck saketed in alone and deked to his bakchande and flipped it in for his 32nd from Ovehckin adn Shcultz.Atlanta would make it 3-2 when resaoner defelcted a salpeper that beta Simeon i beleive five hoal but am not sure. Then Federov would get his own rebound and flip it just past the goal line Ovechkin would seee it on the line and flick it in but it origiamnlly corssed the line when Fedreov shot it the d man whalced it out but it already went in and Ovechkin was jsut making sure but he would not be the scorer Federov's 11th from Ovechkin. AO would just miss an empty net when his wrister defelcted off a skate but he would have loved that because it would have given him a point in the race for most points which is between him and Malkin. Felciman BVakctrom and Hansley the three stars and New Jersey got beat bad by Toronto 4-1 so the Caps need just 1 point or one New Jersey loss to clicnh second which they now have a 4 ponit cushion of and are if they playoofs stared today would face Montreal the Rangers being one point down on them and Montreal trails Pittsburg by three so that matchup copuld change with the two games remaining. LET'S GO CAPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
