They tried to grind us down pretty good with their numbers. I thought we were resilient. When it was time to be committed, we were fully in.Washington was coming off a seven-goal outburst against Pittsburgh on Wednesday after scoring just five goals in its previous four games.The Capitals had played the seasons early weeks without major injuries, something that Trotz wryly noted.I got a flu shot today with one of our doctors.

The Red Wings failed to score on four opportunities.Theres no question we should have scored on one of those power play looks. That ended up being the difference in the game, Blashill said.
