The x-factor: former Capitals goalie Vitek Vanecek.<\/p>\n<p>Despite Washington playing great in the first period, the lone goal belonged to Nico Hischier on the power play.  Jack Hughes scored two spectacular goals in the second period \u2014 one a wraparound bank off Charlie Lindgren&#8217;s pads, the second a shortside snip off his mask \u2013 making it 3-0 after forty minutes.  Jack Hughes made it a hat trick in the third period, winning an odd-man rush.<\/p>\n<p>John Carlson got a power-play goal, a monster slapshot from the blue line, momentarily teasing Vitek Vanecek&#8217;s mortality.  Fabian Zetterlund snapped Jersey&#8217;s fifth goal of the game from a below-the-goal-line pass to make it 5-1.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Capitals played fine.  really.  It&#8217;s just that New Jersey&#8217;s star power was undeniable, plus the subject of our next bullet.  Gustafsson, Carlson, Eller, and Sheary all made some suspect plays in neutral and the defensive zone that the Devils punished them.  I can&#8217;t hate on the effort overall though.  Just outclassed.<\/li>\n<li>Spectacular night for ex-Caps goaltender <strong>Vitek Vanecek<\/strong>.  This season, he&#8217;s been perfectly average behind a superb team, but Saturday&#8217;s win Overalled to him.  According to Natural Stat Trick, he turned away 32 scoring chances and more than two expected goals through two periods.  He won this game against his ex team, and as much as it stings we have to respect it.  That&#8217;s a spite win.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"zxx\" dir=\"ltr\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/NFNiXFkKrG\">pic.twitter.com\/NFNiXFkKrG<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 RMNB (@rmnb) <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/rmnb\/status\/1596659352752082945?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 27, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<ul>\n<li>I want to stipulate that the Devils posts and crossbar also deserve a lot of credit for this win.
