The great eight is still great: numbers for the morning after
The Caps entered action on Saturday night looking for their second three-game winning streak of the season. They got it against the NHL’s best offensive team, downing the Toronto Maple Leafs 4-2 in a game where their captain shone brightest.
The Maple Leafs out-shot the Capitals 29 to 21 and out-attempted them five-on-five 51 to 34. Most of that damage occurred in the third period with the Leafs desperate for a comeback.
