Postgame Recap: Caps 3 Bruins 2

 The Caps played a strong game at TD Garden last night as they were able to end their short losing streak and were able to take down the Bruins 3-2.

My Thoughts:

*Evgeny Kuznetsov showed again how special a player he is as he dominated the game all night. Kuzzy got a assist in the first period and then scored his 13th goal of the season in the second period on a power play.

*Andre Burakovsky should be getting his confidence back as he opened the scoring in the first period as he took a great pass from Kuznetsov and put it top shelf over Tuuka Rask.

*Marcus Johansson is fitting in at the third line center spot and last night was able to tuck a rebound past Rask in the third period to give the Caps a 3-1 lead. For MoJo it's his 10th goal of the season.

*Aaron Ness played well for the Caps last night as he looked more comfortable, he got his first point as a Cap as he assisted on the Burakovsky goal.

*Braden Holtby was terrific last night as I thought the two goals he gave up were not his fault. They were on plays that are tough for goalies to stop. I thought he didn't have his best game in Columbus but he was back on track last night.

*Overall it was a well played game by the Caps as they were skating well and they were passing the puck all over the Bruins. After losing a couple it was nice to see them play a strong game. Especially with the injury bug they have had lately. It was a great road win.
