Devils starting goaltender Keith Kinkaid is a different cat, and Saturday he showed once again just how down to earth he is.
With a playoff spot already clinched, Devils coach John Hynes decided to sit star forward Taylor Hall and Kinkaid for New Jersey’s final regular season game against the Capitals.
How did Kinkaid spend his evening? Well, you’ll have to see it to believe it.
The Washington Capitals concluded the 2017-18 season with a 5-3 win over the New Jersey Devils.
After the game, the team held their annual Jerseys Off Our Backs ceremony where each player gives away their game-worn sweater to fans. During the proceeding wait, Alex Ovechkin and Andre Burakovsky got impatient and started being stupid.
Alex Ovechkin just ended the season with one of the best efforts of his career.
Ovechkin entered the game needing a hat trick to hit 50 goals. He scored twice, but came up juuuuuuuuuuust short.
The Washington Capitals and New Jersey Devils met in both team’s last regular season game. In a tilt that still featured major playoff match up implications, the Caps were victorious and now know that they will be playing either the Columbus Blue Jackets or Philadelphia Flyers in the first round. Last recap of the 82-game regular season and you all got stuck with me!
Alex Ovechkin opened the scoring with his league leading 48th goal of the season. Nico Hischier tied things up for the Devils. Nicklas Backstrom restored the lead and Michal Kempny then added to it. Miles Wood scored to end the second and Patrick Maroon tied the game once more.
Ovi added one more. His 49th. Andre Burakovsky scored the Caps fifth.
Caps beat Devils 5-3!

Capitals rookie Shane Gersich just recorded his first NHL point to give Washington a 3-1 lead over the New Jersey Devils.
After several impressive outings, Gersich’s milestone point happened in his third career NHL game.
Barry Trotz has called Gersich a “possible candidate for the playoffs.”
Washington Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin appears to already have his seventh Maurice “Rocket” Richard Trophy locked up. That’s great, but Ovechkin needs a hat trick tonight against the New Jersey Devils to tally his eighth 50-goal season. He wants it!
Saturday against the New Jersey Devils, Ovechkin came out firing and struck paydirt early.
The Philadelphia Flyers just destroyed the New York Rangers 5-0 to conclude their 2017-18 regular season schedule.
Claude Giroux tallied his first career hat trick and 100 points on the season in the victory.
Well, here at last, dear friends, on the shores of the Anacostia comes the end of our fellowship in the rego season. Go in peace! I will not say: do not weep; for not all tears are an evil.
The Capitals will suit up to host the New Jersey Devils tonight in a game that in some ways is a mere formality, and in other ways a big big deal. The outcome of tonight’s game will help decide who the Caps’ first round playoff opponent will be. There’s a real chance that tonight would be the prologue to a Caps-Devils series.
Puck drop is at 7 PM. Your sweet boy Chris Cerullo will provide your recap.
