The Caps-Bolts rematch on Wednesday has been a busy affair. The second period saw six goals in 15 minutes, but after that is when stuff really went down.
As Cedric Paquette took Michal Kempny down to the ice, injuring the Capitals defenseman’s leg, Jakub Vrana got in his first career NHL fight with Yanni Gourde.

Hardworking sniper Jakub Vrana just hit the 20-goal mark for the first time in his career, but he appears hungry for more goals.
Monday after practice, The Legend threw on Pheonix Copley’s goalie mask and worked with the team’s defensemen on deflections.
Safety first, y’all.
Jakub Vrana is a 20-goal scorer.
With a nifty wrist shot rush goal in the first period of Tuesday’s Caps-Pens game, Vrana has hit the twenty mark for the first time in his so-young-it-still-has-baby-fat career.
To commemorate the milestone, Vrana added goal number 21.
The Capitals defeated the Winnipeg Jets 3-1 Sunday night to continue their seven-game win streak.
The mood in the locker room post-game was buoyant, so much so that one Capitals player broke into song on his way to the shower.

The Washington Capitals controlled play well on Friday night but couldn’t seem to crack the net of Isles goalie Thomas Greiss.
That is — until Jakub Vrana had a hero moment in front of his old coach.
Goodbyes are always difficult and Friday, Capitals players had to say sayonara to a beloved teammate.
Shortly after 2pm, word leaked that general manager Brian MacLellan had traded Madison Bowey and a second-round pick to Detroit for Nick Jensen and a fifth-round selection.
While the 23-year-old Bowey had not developed into a full-time NHL player, he had made lasting relationships with his Capitals teammates from top to bottom.
Top six forward Jakub Vrana appeared to take the news the hardest, using obscure RMNB’ish vocabulary to describe his special friendship with Bowey.

Jakub Vrana scored the game-winning goal against the Vancouver Canucks Tuesday night.
It was one of the strangest goals of the season. Czech this out.
At first glance, one might think that All-Stars Braden Holtby and Hardest Shot winner John Carlson had the best vacation of all the Washington Capitals. You would be wrong.
