Rangers lose to Capitals as Alex Ovechkin scores twice
The first period was probably the Rangers’ worst period of the season. They were outscored 3-1, outshot 19-5, lost 16 of 23 faceoffs and were turning the puck over in really bad situations. Ovechkin had goals at 3:23 and 5:10, and Connor McMichael had the other goal for Washington, with Will Cuylle getting the Rangers goal.
