Let&#8217;s not get too far ahead of ourselves, but this was a good game.<\/p>\n<p>The grinders were tremendous in the first period, with Trevor van Riemsdyk cashing in off Nic Dowd&#8217;s pass.  On the power play, Evgeny Kuznetsov was left unattended in the slot, so he punished the Jets with a backhander.  Marcus Johansson (!) got a penalty shot (!!) and then actually scored on it (!!!).  Lars Eller nabbed Anthony Mantha&#8217;s rebound, and all of a sudden it was 4-0.<\/p>\n<p>Less than a minute into the third period, Cracker frontman David Lowery ended the shutout bid with a rebound goal from the slot.  Pierre-Luc Dubois converted a 3-on-1 rush and all of a sudden the game was interesting again.  Alex Ovechkin got the empty-netter.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cap win!<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>That was a fun game.  Washington&#8217;s fourth line started off the first period strongly, and the energy just sorta spread up the lineup.

Aside from one penalty, he had a sterling game.  A bunch of heavy shifts in the offensive zone despite starting at the other end of the ice, a beauty of an assist on TVR&#8217;s goal, typical work on the penalty kill.  A really underrated player who is putting together another great season.<\/li>\n<li>Speaking of under-appreciated players, <strong>Marcus Johansson<\/strong>&#8216;s penalty-shot goal was Washington&#8217;s first since 2013, back when Mikhail Grabovski was a Cap.

The Caps killed that penalty, got a Johansson&#8217;s goal within it, and then Eller scored a few minutes later. <strong>Anthony Mantha<\/strong> deserves a lot of credit for putting the initial shot on net before Eller&#8217;s cleanup.  Mantha himself came a fraction of an inch score before the second period was up, stymied by the pipe.<\/li>\n<li>A distinguished donkey in those first forty minutes was <strong>Nate Schmidt<\/strong>, who made some suspect defensive plays.
