Capitals forward Brett Connolly just joined Jakub Vrana with an NHL first of his own.
After being sprung on a breakaway, Connolly beat Matt Murray over the glove for his first career playoff goal.

Connolly’s goal gave the Capitals a 3-0 lead.
Murray got a piece of Connolly’s shot before it eked past the goal line.
Lars Eller has two primary assists on the afternoon. All three Capitals goals in Game Two through two periods have beat Murray glove side.
Kris Letang would answer later in the period. The Capitals took a 3-1 lead into intermission.
