You think Markstrom stops that Ovechkin shot? Lol
The guy had very few easy, save percentage padding shots

Selective reading as the third goal wasn’t Ovechkin’s.
Big rebound back into the middle on a routine shot caused panic and he somewhat lost the net on the rebound too.
3rd goal went right over his shoulder, but far from bar down. Even Kelly reluctantly said it should’ve been stopped.
4th goal was similar, a bit better shot but again he makes himself too small when going on his knees to be beaten high with a shot that doesn’t have to be perfect.
Markstrom would’ve had likely better rebound control on the first one and saves at least the shot on the third goal, which was the difference in the game score wise…and, the Caps were lethargic and outplayed until they got that iffy first goal and from then on in they had the advantage in play.
