On the night of December 8th in Washington, a regular championship match concluded where the “Washington Capitals” hosted the “Columbus Blue Jackets” squad. The contest took place at the “Capital One Arena” and ended with a convincing triumph for the hosts—2:0.
The inaugural puck found the visitors’ net at the 20th minute’s 50th second: Jacob Chychrun became the goal’s author, assisted by Tom Wilson and Anthony Beauvillier. Columbus conceded a second time late in the game—at 58:34, Alexey Protas scored, with Martin Fehervary assisting him.
The Capitals’ Russian forward, Alexander Ovechkin, as noted by the NHL, did not register any scoring plays this occasion. The “Blue Jackets'” Russian players—Ivan Provorov, Yegor Chinakhov, Dmitry Voronkov, and Kirill Marchenko—also failed to accumulate points.
Washington’s next contest is scheduled for home on December 12th versus the “Carolina Hurricanes.” Columbus will face the same opponent, but at their own venue and two days sooner—on December 10th.
