Eichel tied the game 3-3 at 13:18, collecting an Andersson rebound and finishing a wrist shot into the net.<\/p>\n
Mitch Marner<\/a> gave the Golden Knights a 4-3 lead 31 seconds into the third period with a shot from below the blue line through a pair of screens underneath Thompson\u2019s blocker on the power play.<\/p>\n \u201c\u2019Rass\u2019 made a great individual effort,\u201d Dowd said. \u201cThe building erupted again. You could feel we were lacking energy early. It\u2019s not going to be the same guys every game. \u2026 When it\u2019s your time, you try and take advantage of it. I thought, \u2018Rass\u2019 did a great job tonight. Then, [Eichel], \u2018Marns.\u201d We just got to do a better job at finishing out the game.\u201d<\/p>\n Washington forward Aliaksei Protas<\/a>\u00a0did not return to the game after a head-to-head collision with Dowd on a puck pursuit along the boards with 1:10 remaining in the first period.<\/p>\n Capitals coach Spencer Carbery did not have an update.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re all hands-on deck, and we\u2019re just going to try to find ways to get two points, no matter how it looks, no matter what the circumstances, no matter what the adversity,\u201d Carbery said. \u201c\u2018Pro\u2019 goes down. Whatever happens, the guys are going to dig in and do everything they possibly can to get two points, and they left it out on the ice tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n NOTES: Sourdif became the 10th Capitals rookie in franchise history with nine multipoint games in a single season, and just the third since 1990-91.
