The Capitals pulled off an exciting 5-4 comeback victory against the New York Islanders, highlighted by Jakob Chychrun’s game-winning goal in overtime, continuing his impressive point streak. Tom Wilson scored twice, marking a strong return from his goal drought, while Connor McMichael and Dylan Strome contributed significantly with playmaking and scoring, respectively. The team displayed remarkable resilience, fighting back from a 4-2 deficit. Off the ice, there are rumors of a potential trade for Nils Hoglander from the Vancouver Canucks, who, despite a slow start this season, could add depth to the squad, especially as the Caps navigate injuries to key players like Alex Ovechkin. Overall, the game showcased the Capitals’ depth and determination as they aim to enhance their offensive lineup.

Chyyyyyyyyychrun is amazing, Strome, MCM, and Willy are on fire right now!!!🔥
So much different from last year. Unlike last season when they would turtle, whereas this year when they face adversity they dust themselves off and comeback at their opponents even more determined to win. (2024-25 The Comeback Capitals)
So much fun to be in The Dolomites 🏒🏔 and watch Chychrun literally gallop 🐎 down the ice to score the OT winner.
They could have easily lost this. This team has a lot of pluck.
Wait a minute. Have I posted this before? Yes. After their win against the Bolts.
Lets go CAPS!!
As to Roy, I love him as a goalie. I put him number 2 all time behind the GOAT, Terry Sawchuk. Yeah, I could see him being sarcastic. Maybe he needs to realize the goalie he has in net is not him.
And btw, what is up with the Rangers? They lost to the Flyers and have lost 5 straight. I thought they were supposed to be good.
Dubois was really bad, but so far okay season seen in total. Give him 20 minutes next game instead of 10-15.
Amazing this team is so shallow and still doing so well. Tom Wilson is the most overrated player in the league. Just a joke. And beating the Islanders is nothing to be proud of… we all knew going into the 3rd they would lose the game
Our abiliity to score this year make these comebacks feel so attainable. This team is both flashy and resilient.
