Caps Let Lead Slip, but Take a Shootout

Alex Ovechkin provided all of Washington's offense in the first 65 minutes of Saturday night's game. Then the two-time MVP scored the only goal in the shootout to lift the Capitals to their second straight victory, a 3-2 decision over a Nashville Predators team they probably should have finished off in regulation.

'We had them 2-0 there, and they are a team that is mentally battling themselves right now,' center Brendan Morrison said. 'I think if we get that third goal, the floodgates open. But we didn't and we let them back in it.'

Capitals Come Up Short in Shootout With Devils

The Washington Capitals earned a point in the standings, but their performance against the New Jersey Devils did little to quell concerns about their ability to hold on to a late lead or stay out of the penalty box at critical times.

The Capitals lost their fourth straight game Monday at Verizon Center, 3-2, in a shootout after blowing a one-goal lead with less than seven minutes left to play, then giving the Devils a power play in overtime.

'Even though we have a fairly veteran team, it's learning how to win again,' Coach Bruce Boudreau said. 'When you've got it, instead of thinking, 'Uh-oh, what's going to happen, what's going to go wrong?' You're thinking, 'No problem, we're going to win it.' That's the mind-set a little bit right now. So it would be good to eventually win a game again.'

With Flyers, Capitals Begin Tough Stretch

Coach Bruce Boudreau has plenty to be pleased about after his team's first two games. The Washington Capitals are scoring goals in bunches, the goaltending has been solid and special teams have been, well, special.

But, as Boudreau said after Monday's practice, it's far too early for any back-patting, particularly with the most challenging portion of the regular season schedule set to begin Tuesday against the undefeated Flyers.

Mike Knuble's return to Philadelphia marks the start of a stretch in which all six of the Capitals' opponents qualified for the playoffs last season, including two -- the Detroit Red Wings and San Jose Sharks -- who would surprise no one if they ended up playing for the Stanley Cup in June.
