It was wishfull thinking on my part...but they didn't play to challenge that team in any ways. They even managed to play shorhanded early on, when they were not suppose to be in that position...someone just forgot to jump in ....They find new ways to lose, its amazing. I'm not denying the Caps are a hot team right now but still....Comment

I know it wouldn't have made a difference, but why weren't the Caps given a bench minor when the whole team jumped off to congratulate Ovie? I get that it's a huge accomplishment and I'm totally cool with them doing it - I don't see it as disrespectful and I highly doubt it would have changed the outcome - but shouldn't they technically have been given one?Comment

Technically, yes. But I believe the Capitals would have asked the league in advance if it was fine, and given permission to do so. I think it was the Capitals in 2010 with Mike Green's goal scoring record where they got permission from the league to do the same, and it was approved.Comment

I would agree that this is worth everyone jumping on the ice for. I would have given them permission also. :) Its too bad it was against Ottawa but really, it doesn't matter. The achievement on its own has to be recognized by all hockey fans and their mom...
