Montreal Canadiens Surprise The Washington Capitals
As Alex Ovechkin found a way to shoot the puck right past Canadiens goalie Jaroslav Halak at the beginning of the third period, the crowd roared in amazement and there seemed to be more hope in the loyal Caps fans' eyes that Washington would take down Montreal.
Unfortunately for Washington, one of the officials discovered that Ovechkin's linemate Mike Knuble was inside the goal crease despite the replay suggesting differently. There was no goal and the Washington Capitals fell bitterly to the Montreal Canadiens with a 2-1 loss, ending their season in the play-offs.
It was surprising to see Montreal pull this off after experiencing a three-games-to-one deficit against highly skilled Capitals, who were standing with the NHL's best record of regular season.
The top three NHL teams within the Eastern Conference have no been eliminated and Montreal will move on to their second round on Friday against the defending Stanley Cup Champions, the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Philadelphia Flyers will also move on this Saturday to play against the Boston Bruins.
In light of Ovechkin's and the Washington Capitals' embarassing downfall, Montreal goalie Halak made a huge difference in the outcome of the game. He made 41 saves during the game while teammates Marc-Andre Bergeron scored in the first period and Dominic Moore scored a second game-sealing goal at the end of the third period.
Brooks Laich of the Capitals cut the game in half with his spirit-lifting goal in the last two minutes of the game, but the Capitals could not pull it together to tie the game up before the end of the third period, even with a power play.
There are probably a lot of hockey pools out there missing one major producer - Alex Ovechkin. An intense game overall, the Canadiens are rewarded with their advancement in the playoffs. The games will go on as eager fans wait out the opening game of the Montreal Canadiens versus the very powerful Pittsburgh Penguins in couple of days.
