Bruins Blow Lead, Lose To Capitals


Where do I start? I guess I'll say that the Bruins lost 4-3 in OT... So the Bruins got ahead very early in the game, right in the first period, getting a 3-0 lead. I mean, they had great goals in the first period.  But then, they would let up 3 unanswered goals by the Capitals and send the game into overtime. And of course, OF COURSE, the Capitals sealed the deal by winning it. Let me explain, the defense played sloppy through the end of the game, and heading into over time, they let up sort of a breakaway. Capitals Eric Fehr broke through TWO Bruin defenders that were still sort of defending him and somehow STILL got a shot on net, which would be the game winning over time goal for the Capitals. They were covering him, but he took an awful weird shot and it somehow went top shelf and got by Rask...

Tuukka Rask: 22 out of 26 shots saved
Brad Marchand: 1 Goal
Zdeno Chara: 1 Goal
Dougie Hamilton: 1 Goal
David Krejci: 2 Assists

So, obviously, Rask didn't have his best night last night, and neither did the defense. Even though Rask has let up 8 goals in the past 2 games, there's no need to lose hope on Rask. I still think he is a great goalie, and he's just been struggling the past 2 games. Besides, the Bruins always have trouble with the Caps, even when Thomas was our goalie... Anyways, next up we face the Leafs.
