The Washington Capitals had to hold on for a 3-2 win against the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday night despite Logan Thompson allowing a third-period goal due
Washington Capitals goaltender Logan Thompson picked up his 22nd win of the season on Tuesday against the Edmonton Oilers.
During last night's Oilers-Capitals game, Edmonton managed to score a very bizarre goal with the help of something totally unexpected laying on the ice.
Thompson is set to start in Tuesday's road matchup against the Oilers, per Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post.
Tom Wilson, Matt Roy and Pierre-Luc Dubois scored and Logan Thompson made 30 saves during a 3-2 win in Edmonton.
In a game where the Capitals struggled to get much going offensively, it was Thompson who helped hold down the fort. The Capitals' stars also stayed hot, with Pierre-Luc Dubois putting up another multi-point outing to help power D.C.'s offense and Tom Wilson striking again.
Pierre-Luc Dubois had a goal and an assist as the league-leading Washington Capitals won their fifth game in a row, defeating the Edmonton Oilers 3-2 on Tuesday night.
While the Edmonton Oilers were on a rush against the Washington Capitals, a plate of nachos landed on the ice. Oilers vet Corey Perry actually had to avoid them as he got the puck on his stick and buried the one-timer.
Edmonton Oilers superstar Leon Draisaitl scored his 29th goal in the first five minute of a game in a 3-2 loss to the Washington Capitals.
Alex Ovechkin might get most of the media attention for this year’s Washington Capitals, but goaltender Logan Thompson is vying for his share of the spotlight.
After a wild schedule of road games and cross-country flights, the Edmonton Oilers kicked off their six-game home stand against Alex Ovechkin and the red-hot Washington Capitals.
