Less than 3:00 gone, and Laich breaks open right down the middle, off a great pass from Fleishmann of all people, and it's 1-0 Caps.... now Semin catches Radivojevic square in the face with his stick, sends him off the ice bleeding profusely... no call.

Midway through the 1st.... a typical line change, Morrisonn off the bench.... gets the puck and rifles it past Backstrom!

2-0 Caps!!

Ovechkin in a bench interview says  "We just have to keep it going and don't stop" so immediately they commit a penalty and put the Wild on the PP.

9:00 into the 2nd, SOGs this period are 7-1 Wild.... the gloves drop. It's Steckel and Voros... a draw, more wrasslin' that fightin'....

13:00+ gone 2nd, and there's a harmless shot by the Wild.... but it goes off the leg of Radivojevec and in....

2-1.

Caps have looked bad for the first 15:00 of this period, but now the 3rd line guys put on a show, and Fehr is left alone just long enough while working around the net to roof one over Backstrom!

3-1 Caps!!!

Poti and Laich  with the assists (Poti really kept the play alive). Fehr is the second Cap tonight with his first goal of the season.

Another fight, Bradley and Voros this time.... Bradley gets the most/best blows in, the takedown, and the win...

AND BEFORE I CAN FINISH TYPING THAT, LAICH BURIES ANOTHER ONE OFF A FACEOFF!!!! A 4 POINT NIGHT!!!!

4-1 Caps!!!!

4-1 Caps, end 2nd. After being outplayed for about 15:00, the Caps take over the last 5:00.... nice to see.

Ovechkin looks like he's starting to squeeze that stick a little too tight; it's about time someone stepped up and covered for him.

3rd is on, the Caps have looked decent.... they get a PP, but do nothing with it.... the Wild get a PP, and very early on a puck hits crossbar and post, but doesn't go in.... back and forth.... Caps get another PP, nothing.... there's about 4:00 left in regulation.

4-1 Caps, final.

The dream is alive... Fehr, Fleishmann and Laich each +4 tonight... but Semin's 5 game goal streak comes to an end, Ovechkin gets shutout, and Malkin has at least 2 points tonight to go further ahead of Ovechkin in the points race.
