For fifty-five minutes of regulation and then throughout the five-minute overtime session, last night's game between the Washington Capitals and Philadelphia Flyers did not look like a matchup between the Presidents' Trophy winner and a team scraping and clawing just to make the playoffs. Instead, it was a battle of two teams that were evenly matched in all facets of the game. The Flyers would surge for a few shifts, and then the Capitals would match it. Back and forth it went, as the two teams even traded power play goals in the third period to ensure that the game would go to overtime. A late push by Washington in the final five minutes of regulation gave them the edge in the possession metrics (the Flyers finished with a 45.75% score-adjusted Corsi), but this truly felt like a 50/50 game. At this point, the two teams are likely opponents in the first round of the postseason, and if this game is any indication, we're in for one heck of a series.
