Daily Washington Capitals news and notes
The Capitals fall to the Montreal Canadiens, led by goalie Jaroslav Halak, in the first game of the postseason.
It's way too early in the postseason for this.
Well, the Canadiens - and by 'the Canadiens' I mean 'Jaroslav Halak' - have managed to turn this in to a one-period game.
On the one hand, the Caps had a lot more scoring chances than the Habs. On the other hand, it's 1-1.
