One team decided that they wanted to win Tuesday night’s game and it was not the Washington Capitals. The New York Islanders blitzed the Caps net in the third period like the Caps weren’t even there on the way to a 1-0 victory.
The Isles outshot the Caps 39 to 29 and out-attempted them at five-on-five 54 to 45.

The Washington Capitals have been in grind-it-out mode for about a week now. Tuesday’s night road game against the New York Islanders was no exception.
First period: No goals.
Second period: No goals.
Third period: No goals for thirteen minutes, then Brock Nelson got a quick look from the slot to beat Vanecek.
That’s it. Caps lose.

The Capitals will be facing off against the New York Islanders to try and extend their win streak to three games…but also try to convince us that the last game against the Isles was just a fluke. Tonight we will see the return of Jakub Vrana to the line-up after being a healthy scratch for the previous two games. It’ll be a tough game, we will need all the energy from Jake the Snake.
The puck will be dropping at 7 PM and Good Tweet Pete will have your recap. More like Good Recap Pete if you ask me.
