Maple Leafs lose heartbreaker to Capitals

WASHINGTON At some point the positives the Maple Leafs keep talking about might actually result in a victory.

Getting it right only in spurts, however, won add up to much in the National Hockey League and it certainly wasn going to be enough against one of the top clubs in the Eastern Conference.

Instead of leaving the Verizon Center with a win on Saturday night, the Leafs missed a point thanks to a late goal by Nicklas Backstrom and knock off alhambra clover necklace then came up small in the shootout, failing to score on four opportunities in a 3 2 loss versus the Washington Capitals.

Only Alex Ovechkin, who earlier in the game tied an NHL record, scored in the post overtime skills competition and the Leafs were sent to their 12th loss in 14 games with Mike Babcock behind the bench.

The Leafs were competitive in the initial stages, but playing the night before at home (and losing in overtime to the Detroit Red Wings) came with a price. By the time 65 minutes of hockey was done before a rowdy crowd of 18,506, the Leafs were outshot for the fifth time in six games and had 44 shot attempts to the Capitals 61.

Toronto, which will practise at home on Monday before heading out for games in Dallas and Nashville, fell to 2 8 4. The Caps improved to 10 3 0, tying the best start in team history.

was a tough 48 hours, or 24 hours really, that for sure, goaltender James Reimer said. battled hard, had a fake van cleef gold clover necklace ton of character, a ton of work ethic.

a hard game to play back to back. We travelled and they were waiting for us. (But) it was a fun night to be behind (his teammates). Leafs dodged a major injury to dependable forward Daniel Winnik. Just over five minutes into the game, and a couple of minutes after he opened the scoring, Winnik collided with Capitals forward Justin Williams deep in the Leafs end. Winnik fell awkwardly to the ice and did not put any weight on his left leg as he was helped off. His night was done, and the Leafs later confirmed a lower body injury.

But Babcock was able to exhale.

does not seem like it was near as serious as they originally thought, Babcock said.

The coach then indicated that it possible Winnik will play in Dallas on Tuesday.

Ovechkin tied the game 1 1 early in the second period on a power play, one of six for the Caps in the game, and in doing so scored his 483rd career goal, tying him with Sergei Fedorov for the most NHL goals scored by a Russian born player.

James van Riemsdyk put the Leafs back up by one goal at 9:27 of the third, beating Braden Holtby, and it appeared the lead would hold.

The Leafs killed off a two man Washington advantage that was one minute one second in length. Then, with under three minutes to play in regulation, Ovechkin thought he had tied the game when he scored on a backhand.

The puck got past Reimer as Williams and Leafs forward Byron Froese jostled in front, and after a lengthy review thanks to a challenge by Babcock, referees Brad Meier and Kelly Sutherland determined that Williams had interfered with Reimer without the aid of Froese. No goal.

The heartbreaker came courtesy of Backstrom, who was standing to the left of Reimer. With 1.7 seconds on the clock, Backstrom shot went in off Reimer left arm. Parenteau, Tyler Bozak, Joffrey Lupul and Nazem Kadri. It beginning to get a little Twilight Zone ish for Kadri, who led the Leafs with seven shots on goal. Kadri has 60 shots on goal this season and has scored once.

have had lots of opportunities, it will work out for these guys if they keep being honest with their effort and their preparation and how they compete, Babcock said about the team in general, though he could have singled out Kadri.

In the end, the Leafs pop gun offence and general lack of skill left them wanting more. It on Babcock and his staff to ensure frustration doesn take over as the wins remain nice things for other teams to enjoy.

don have to spend too much time (stressing positives), Babcock said. you talk to our guys, and I could be wrong, I think they feel pretty good that they are playing right. When you play right over a period of time, you get rewarded. Nation is wondering when that will be.

WASHINGTON So close to their first gutsy win of 2014 15.

The Maple Leafs were 1.7 seconds away from their third victory when it was gone in flash.

Or, in this case, off the stick of the Washington Capitals Nicklas Backstrom.

Parked beside James Reimer, Backstrom scored off the goalie left arm to send the game to overtime.

Five hockey minutes later, Alex Ovechkin scored the lone goal in a shootout and the Caps beat the Leafs 3 2. Nazem Kadri then was stopped by Braden Holtby.

The Leafs had scored the go ahead goal on a power play at 9:27 of the third period. With the rambunctious Tom Wilson serving an extra roughing minor after tangling with Kadri, James van Riemsdyk deposited the puck behind Holtby.

A shot/pass by Morgan Rielly was deflected by Joffrey Lupul and off the post. There was no hesitation by van Riemsdyk when alhambra van cleef necklace replica he quickly put it into the net.
