Green's powerplay goal help Capitals tie series at two
Defenseman Mike Green's slap shot on a powerplay with 5:48 left in regulation was the go-ahead goal and Alex Ovechkin & Nicklas Backstrom scored as well to lift the Washington Capitals to a 3-2 victory over the top-seeded New York Rangers that tied their Eastern Conference semifinal series at two.
According to STATS LLC, it was the 13th time in their Capitals careers - all were first-round draft picks - that Ovechkin, Backstrom, and Green scored in the same game, but first in any postseason.
With the series all tied up, the Rangers will host Game 5 this Monday night at Madison Square Garden and the Capitals will be home for Game 6 in Washington this Wednesday night.
