Capitals Vs BruinsCapitals Edge Out Bruins in Thrilling Overtime Victory
Washington, D.C. – April 2, 2025 – In a high-stakes showdown between two Eastern Conference powerhouses, the Washington Capitals defeated the Boston Bruins 4-3 in overtime last night at Capital One Arena. The victory keeps Washington’s playoff hopes alive while dealing a blow to Boston’s quest for home-ice advantage in the postseason.
Game Highlights
The game was a back-and-forth battle from the opening puck drop. The Bruins struck first with a power-play goal from David Pastrnak, his 45th of the season, but the Capitals responded quickly with Alex Ovechkin netting a trademark one-timer to tie the game.
Boston regained the lead in the second period after Brad Marchand capitalized on a defensive miscue, but Washington’s Dylan Strome evened the score with a slick deflection in front of the net. The third period saw both teams exchange goals—Charlie McAvoy blasted a shot past Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren, only for Tom Wilson to tie it again with a gritty net-front finish.
Overtime was short-lived as John Carlson sealed the win just 1:32 into the extra frame, firing a wrist shot past Bruins netminder Linus Ullmark to send the home crowd into a frenzy.
Key Takeaways
Ovechkin Watch: With his goal, Ovechkin now sits just 12 goals away from breaking Wayne Gretzky’s all-time NHL goals record (894).
Goaltending Duel: Lindgren made 32 saves, including several clutch stops in the third period, while Ullmark turned aside 28 shots in a losing effort.
Playoff Implications: The Capitals (38-28-9) move within two points of the final Wild Card spot, while the Bruins (46-18-10) remain in contention for the Atlantic Division title.
