In this edition of Locked on Capitals Dan talks about the game Wednesday night as the Capitals defeat the Philadelphia by a score of 3-1. It was a game that saw goals from two of the Capitals biggest off season acquisitions. Connor Brown scored one goal and Dylan Strome scored two goals. It appears goo on ice chemistry between them.
“I thought they were good all night,” Coach Peter Laviolette said of the pair. “Their whole line [with Joe Snively] was really good. They worked, they got good skill, they complemented each other, and they brought a lot of speed. I thought Brownie did a good job at dogging pucks. … Stromer was around the puck all night. Really good.”
Goalie Charlie Lindgren had a great game and made 13 saves on 13 shots. A really great moment to help boost Lindgren's confidence.
“That was exactly how I would want my first game to go — getting the feel of the puck again, seeing game action — so I didn’t think my job was too hard tonight,” Lindgren said. “I thought our guys did an awesome job, obviously. It’s a good way to build a little bit of confidence.”
