The Washington Capitals faced off against the Boston Bruins in a competitive game just before the holiday break, ultimately losing 4-1 despite strong efforts from the team. Charlie Lindgren made his return in net after a stomach bug, registering 18 saves, while Jakub Vrana scored to tie the game 1-1 and extended his scoring streak to three games. Key moments included a rebound goal from Charlie Coyle that broke the tie and an empty-netter from Brad Marchand. The Capitals struggled offensively, managing only 11 shots on goal compared to Boston’s 22, and missed critical opportunities, particularly during a lengthy power play. Looking ahead, the team anticipates the return of captain Alex Ovechkin, which could significantly boost their performance.
