Caps Beat Boston 11th STRAIGHT W

The Caps game was big tonight for 2 reasons 1 they need points if they want to be the NHL's best and 2 they were trying to set a franchise record for most wins in a row and they DID IT 11 straight wins is the new Caps best and the all time best is Pittsburgh 17 straight so the Caps have 6 more to go to tie the record and woudlnt that be great if they could break it I bet they can. Boston scored 1st but the next for goals were by players in a Caps jersey and a 3 goal 3rd period had Boston scrambling to make a game of it and they failed now goal details thef irst was Bopston on a 5 on 3 where they fed the front and a shot slipped between Theo but Jose was on point all night making big save after huge save he evn stopped a penalty shot. The Caps would tie when Knuble was passed to while skating at the net and he stuffs in the pass his 19th from Poti and Nik and Knuble has been the Caps hottest goal scorer recently i dont think Ovie has more goals in the last 10 but i could be wrong. Then the 3rd Laich takes a feed and quickly goes with a wrister 5 hole to put the Caps ahead his 17th from Smein then Poti skates and dekes around and past 2 d and slides the puck to the side where Boyd Gordon has room to put the puck and he stuffs in the feed tremendous moves by Poti he was looking like Mike Green tonight and it is so important to have a d then set up scoring chances like that somethink Mike Green is always trying but he goes too fats and leaves people eating his dust while To,m tonight did iyt poised and composed gicng his teammates a chacne to skate with himn and be part of the play slow down Mike youre gonna need help Boyd's 2nd from poti and Pothier the Ovie seals the deal when he gets the puck with the empty net wide open and by the boards he slides a backhander that hits nothing but the back of the net his 36th from well he did it all by himself 4-1 the final 1st star Jose and he deserved it making 41 stops he was busy in net tonight and played great (where us Semyon varlamov the Caps current w streak has been a lot of Jose mixed in with a little Michael Neuvirth but im sure Smeyon's getting better that dang rehab start he got hurt in so they may not send him to Hershey this time 2nd star Poti 2 A Shots 26-42 Bruins faceoffs 34-38 Bruins Hits 19-23 Bruins PPs Caps 0-4 Bostobn 1-6 and the Caps improve to 38-12-6 82 pts best in the NHL with San Jose playing Dteroit late tonight go Detroit you can do it Red Wings and if the Wings prevail in regulation Caps will be all alone atop the NHL. it would good to be back in the top spot next up a trip to NY to face the Rangers Thursday @ 7:00 as the Caps look for a 12th staright and another record breaker or record adder SO LETS GO CAPS WE RUN NEW YORK!!!!!!!!!!!
