The Flyers would score again to make it a one goal game before the Caps answered once again this time from Alex Ovechkin for his 10th goal of the season. He’s one goal away from tying Phil Esposito for sixth in NHL history in goals. 4-2 was the score entering the final period.
Jensen wasn’t the only Cap that had de ja vu against the Flyers. Nic Dowd scored in the third period to give the Caps a 5-2 cushion before the Flyers answered with two goals in an attempted comeback that ultimately failed.
Now that the Caps survived another game, they look to develop more of a killer instinct against a Sabres team that they’ve had success against so far this season. Can they continue the momentum and play a complete game? Here is how to find out.
