Caps Win 3-2

Well the Caps beat the Lightning 3-2 in Tampa in a hard fought game.

It was a great game but I think the penalty on Kuba for his two hander on Ovechkin wasn't enough, he should have gotten a game misconduct as well.

Pothier's PP goal was really pretty and Quintin Laing continues to play his guts out and earn everyone's respect and admiration. Tonight he was plus 1 and blocked at least 2 shots. I didn't think the penalties on either Ovechkin or Semin were good calls but the Caps got away with a big trip on St. Louis so other than the fact that my paternal instincts say Kuba should have gotten more than he did for his "high stick" on Ovie it was a pretty evenly called game. Another fun one to watch, hard work by the Caps held both Lecavalier and St. Louis at bay and the Caps are playing well. More later but it was a two point night.
