Postgame Recap: Caps 3 Penguins 0

 The Caps made a statement last night, that they can compete with the Pens again. Braden Holtby was stellar and Eric Fehr scored twice. Here are the Highlights.



Caps/Pens Highlights:







My Thoughts:


*Braden Holtby was outstanding once again last night. He made some great saves but his best was when Sidney Crosby had a breakaway and Holts stopped it. The Caps were up 1-0 at the time so it was a big moment in the game.

*Eric Fehr scored two goals, both were a product of going to the net hard and getting rebounds with traffic in front of the net.

*Marcus Johansson got back on the score sheet with his 2 on 1 goal to put the Caps up 2-0 in the third period at that point.

*Matt Niskanen and Brooks Orpik both played very solid games in their return to Pittsburgh. Orpik had an assist on the Johansson goal.

*The Caps played a heavy game last night. The NBCSN broadcast team compared it to the Western Conference teams that Barry Trotz coached in Nashville.

*The Hershey Bears lost to the Binghampton Senators 4-3 in overtime. The Bears got goals from Dustin Gazley, Chris Brown, and Kris Newbury.
