Great effort, and great Caps win!!
One of those strong, solid, wins, when you triumph over a team with a two goal lead going into the third period, and they have ALSO played a good game against you! Makes it so sweet!
Our boys then seemed to find another gear in their game, especially in the last half of the 3rd P!
Anybody else notice that this year especially, our Boys are showing that they can not only come together, after being down, but are successfully adapting, often, and WINNING in different ways, as well! Getting real contributions, and sharing the load, from basically all skaters, up and down the lineup!!
The collective team effort level is higher overall, being spread out, and sustained, and showing itself for a much larger part of the entire 60 minute game!!
Throw in, also, Holtby’s talents, having so obviously returned, and you’ve got yourself one Caps team that is very tough to beat!!
Much more direct hard shooting, coupled with less holding on to the puck, and unnecessary overpassing, and less waiting for the perfect shot stuff, that has plagued us, for the last few years!
This is a different, and certainly improved Capitals team!! With a slightly different substance in the core, it seems! Very refreshing to see, and I just pray it continues!!
