Washington Starts Game 7 Trifecta With OT Win In Boston
It was only fitting that the Washington-Boston should go to overtime of a Game 7, only fitting that it should be a war of the goaltenders, and only fitting that it took a virtually-impossible-to-stop shot sliding into the narrowest crease on the net to win it. The Capitals got the winning goal from Joel Ward, ousted last year’s Stanley Cup winner 2-1 and moved on to the Eastern conference semi-finals.
