Overview
- Washington’s four-game winning streak ended with a 4-3 loss to Vancouver on Sunday at Capital One Arena.
- Vancouver built a 3-0 lead in the first period, with Myers’s goal standing after review and the ensuing delay-of-game penalty yielding a Canucks power-play tally.
- The NHL stated video review found no goaltender interference under rule 69.7, and Myers described the milestone 100th goal of his career as lucky.
- Capitals goalie Charlie Lindgren declined to re-litigate the ruling, calling the sequence extremely frustrating and maddening.
- Washington controlled five-on-five play after the first in shots and chances as Thatcher Demko held firm, with Jakob Chychrun and rookie Ryan Leonard scoring and Hendrix Lapierre driving the comeback push.
