The Capitals drop 4 in row and are trying desperately to get back into the win column. The schedule doesn't get any easier as they face the Edmonton Oilers on Monday.
Alex Ovechkin made history by passing Gordie Howe for the most goal on one team. Alex Ovechkin scores on the power play to give the Capitals a 1-0 lead. It marks Ovechkin's 787th career goal, moving him past Gordie Howe (786 goals with the Detroit Re Wings) for the most goals scored by a player with a single franchise.
