The Washington Capitals are ready to finish a three-game gauntlet against two former Southeast Division foes as they meet the Florida Panthers for the second time in less than a week. None of that matinee business today as we have a regular few minutes after 7 PM puck drop.

Ilya Samsonov will be back in the net for the fourth straight game as he continues to flip the entire Caps goaltender situation on its head.

Buckle up!

Owwwwwwwch, Orly.

It’s the effort that counts Hath.

Capitals lines

Connor McMichael gets back in the goal column but did he call backboard?

Beck Malenstyn follows Mikey up only seconds later with his first NHL goal. Seven players have now scored their first NHL goal while playing for the Capitals this season.

I said I thought the Caps scored too early and then Joe Thornton immediately scored for the Panthers. 2-1, hockey game.

Bob made a ridiculous stop on Ovi but the Tiger was too much for him moments later. 3-1, good guys.

Nick Jensen to da roof. 4-1, for your visiting Washington Capitals.

Ryan Lomberg got the Panthers right back into the game with an early third period goal.

The Panthers keep coming and the Caps give up another shorthanded goal against. 4-3.

Tie game, Ekblad. Just an utterly horrible third period from the Caps.

Collapse complete. Awful.

Yea, don’t have a whole lot of words for that one. That was a joke.
