Capitals - 6, Penguins - 5 (SO)

Crosby vs Ovechkin? How about Malkin vs Ovechkin! For two guys who are supposed to be friends, they sure wanted badly to one-up each other, with both getting two goals and dishing it out physically on the other. What an exciting game! Eight goals in the first two periods, wow! Nicklas Backstrom is an amazing player. The Penguins spoiled a chance to win it in overtime by not converting on a 5-on-3 powerplay. The Penguins's two money shootout specialists (Christensen, Letang) failed to convert. But the Pens got a point and retook first-place in the Atlantic.
