Alexander Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals were topped by the goaltending of Chris Osgood and the defense of the Detroit Red Wings.
The Capitals, thanks to the Wings, have now lost three straight games, but when asked after the game, Ovechkin said he was not frustrated and that, “It happens.”
Detroit, who was playing their first game since loosing Johan Franzen to a torn ACL, did not look like a team that was concerned about offence.
The Wings are also not suffering from a lack of energy in the Joe Louis Arena. For the second game in a row, the Joe was packed and full of energy. It will be interesting to see if that energy will carry over when the Las Angeles Kings visit Thursday.
