In a thrilling Game 4 in Montreal, the Capitals secured a 5-2 victory over the Canadiens, taking a commanding 3-1 lead in the series. Dylan Strome kicked off the scoring with his second postseason goal, assisted by Anthony Beauvillier, who set a record by being the first Capital to record an assist in each of his first four playoff games. The chemistry on the top line has been remarkable, contributing significantly to the team’s success. The game remained tied at 2-2 until the third period, where Tom Wilson’s impressive play created an opening for his teammates. Andrew Mangiapane netted the game-winner, and Brandon Duhaime added two goals to help seal the victory. Despite the win, the Capitals faced challenges with their special teams, going 0-5 on the power play and allowing the Canadiens to score on 2 of 4 chances with their penalty kill. The Capitals outshot the Canadiens 26-18, showcasing their offensive efforts, but there’s room for improvement in special teams performance. Goalie Logan Thompson made a strong return, stopping 16 of 18 shots and shutting out the Canadiens in the third period. The Caps now have the opportunity to close out the series at home in Game 5 on Wednesday.

LETS GOOOOOOO
#ALLCAPS ❤
They flipped the script! I had a sick feeling after the 2nd. Reminded me of 2018 Game 5 vs PIT where they gave up 2 goals in 2nd and down 3-2. I couldn't watch the 3rd but they won handily. This team is showing that same moxy of that 2018 team. Now let's finish it on Wednesday! Dan, I like that you're not satisfied and see need for improvement. Nothing earned yet.
They definitely played better. BUT we need to figure out our special teams. 5 power plays you need to score!!
That hit against carrier really turned this game around for the caps
To be honest, Ovi put more than usual with that hit. His bling bling came out 😮😂
they looked like old dad's hitting kids on the local pond
The Habs thought they had it in the bag and Thompson would never return. Instead, they took it in the bag in the last 5 mins of that game. PLD needs to step up.
