Joey Mistretta •The Washington Nationals are reportedly declining their mutual contract option on Nelson Cruz, per MLB Trade Rumors.

@ByMattWeyrichOnly goalies with multiple wins against the Oilers so far this season:
Charlie Lindgren
Vitek Vanecek

@ByMattWeyrichAliaksei Protas makes a veteran play, losing control of the puck for a second on a breakaway and rather than force the shot he finds a streaking Nic Dowd right behind him for the score. Capitals take a 3-2 lead with 12:47 to go in the third.

@ByMattWeyrichStrong passing play by the Capitals results in an Oshie power play goal right in front. Kuznetsov fires a bullet to Strome behind the net who immediately kicks it over to Oshie in the low slot. Tied back up 2-2.

@ByMattWeyrichErik Gustafsson was on the receiving end of a cross-check from Evan Bouchard and he immediately skated off to ice to head to the locker room. Capitals go to the PP, but they’re down a defenseman for the time being.

@ByMattWeyrichFINAL | Caps 3, Oilers 2
The Capitals fend off an Oilers pulled-goalie flurry of offense to hold on for the win. Down’s third period goal proves to be the game-winner as WSH outshot Edmonton 50-30.

@ByMattWeyrichEND OF 2 | Caps 2, Oilers 2
Four goals scored in the second period but the two teams remain tied. WSH leads in SOG 41-19.

@ByMattWeyrichConnor McDavid gets a shorthanded breakaway intercepting a pass by John Carlson and he beats Lindgren through the five hole. 2-1 Oilers.

@ByMattWeyrichLars Eller makes one of his best plays with the stick all year, getting the puck all alone in front of Skinner and scoring with a nifty move to fake him out. It’s 1-1 about midway through the second.
