The Caps went on a scoring spree going up three to one and then held off Buffalo to gain the win. Alex Ovechkin scored what would become the game winning score by slicing and dicing the defense.
“It was a pretty cool goal,” admitted Alex Ovechkin afterwards. “It happens sometimes … I just made some moves. Puck was probably neutral, so I won the battle. I was tired and I just fell, and I shoot. It was in, so that’s pretty cool. It was a great goal and I’m glad it happened to me.”
