The Columbus Blue Jackets welcomed the Washington Capitals to Nationwide Arena as the Jackets looked to take a 3-0 series lead in their first round matchup.
Here’s what went down.
First Period
No score, despite both teams having power play chances. Also, this happened:

Second Period
Washington scored one good goal, and a second that was then overturned by an offside challenge from John Tortorella.
The Jackets took two stupid slashing penalties to give Washington a five on three, and John Carlson was able to capitalize because Columbus cannot stay out of the box.
Third Period
NOTHING BUT RESPECT FOR MY PRESIDENT
