It took them three tries this season, but the Washington Capitals have finally downed their Metro Division rivals, the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Caps 2-1 win in overtime sends them into the back half of their back-to-back with momentum.
The Caps out-shot the Jackets 36 to 28 and out-attempted them at five-on-five 56 to 39.
Through 39 games, the Capitals have not lost consecutive games in regulation, the only team in the NHL to accomplish this feat.
