Saturday night, Karl Alzner scored his first goal since March 5th of last season. It was the most Karl Alzner goal to ever Karl Alzner.
The Capitals have a ton of superstars — Alex Ovechkin, Nicklas Backstrom, and Evgeny Kuznetsov — but it was quiet Swede Marcus Johansson who dominated the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday night.
Johansson had two goals and an assist to push the Caps to a blowout 5-2 win.
The Caps were in Vancouver tonight, and the game started yesterday. The boys dominated the entire night, largely thanks to their 5v5 play, providing the W to end the team’s two-game losing streak.
First came a tip-in from noted net-crasher Marcus Johansson. Second was top-six Tommy’s first of the season. Next came a goal from Denmark’s Jannik Hansen with 6 seconds left in the first period. Johansson then scored his second of the night on the power play after slamming home a TJ Oshie post shot. Bo Horvat tallied late in the second to make it 3-2. Oshie made it 4-2 late in the 3rd off a great feed from Andre Burakovsky. Karl Alzner got an empty netter, 5-2.
Caps beat Canucks 5-2. Everybody can go to sleep now.

One young fan from Vancouver dressed up as Alex Ovechkin for the Caps-Canucks Halloween-themed game. Sportsnet rolled tape of him during the second period and he’s adorable.
Entering Saturday’s game in Vancouver, Barry Trotz made a big change to the forward lines, bringing Tom Wilson into the top six. That move drew criticism from soft-handed, overeducated elites from websites such as R.M.N.B. dot com, but it worked.
Wilson scored in the first period after a dandy pass from linemate Evgeny Kuznetsov.
It’s a scary time of year. No better place for that than Vancouver, the city where a pair of decrepit, identical ghouls shamble north and south on a team that is undead but doesn’t know it.
Despite a .500 record early on, the Canucks are probably in for some suffering this season. But that doesn’t mean they won’t be dangerous against the Caps tonight. Doomed hero Loui Eriksson has some life in him still, and the Caps’ special teams have a dark secret (they’re bad).
Game’s on at 10 PM on CSN. There will be blood.
