The Washington Capitals have been knocked out of the 2020 NHL playoffs in the first round by their old bench boss and his New York Islanders in only five games. The 4-0 defeat marks the second season in a row that the Caps haven’t at least seen the second round after seeing it in the prior four.
The Caps outshot the Isles 21 to 17 and out-attempted them at five-on-five 52 to 23.
