The Washington Capitals hosted the Detroit Red Wings on Wednesday night. The game might have started with some high spirits after a fabulous goal from Alex Ovechkin, but in the end the Caps couldn’t make it work. Red Wings win in over time.

The Capitals are still rolling without a loss in regulation this season, but there have been a few close calls. I’d consider tonight one of them.

Take a look at the highlights below.
