STANLEY CUP PLAYOFFS RECAP MAY 8 2017 – GAME 7 DOUBLE HEADER

CAPITALS SURGE TO FORCE GAME 7
The Capitals raced out to a five-goal lead on the strength of multi-point efforts from Andre Burakovsky (2-0—2), Nicklas Backstrom (1-1—2), T. J. Oshie (1-1—2) and Evgeny Kuznetsov (0-2—2) to stave off elimination for the second time in the series and force Game 7.

STANLEY CUP PLAYOFFS MUSINGS

  • Capitals forward T.J. Oshie opened the scoring and added an assist to set a career playoff high with 4-8—12 in 12 GP
  • Sidney Crosby recorded his 97th career playoff assist (all w/ PIT, 134 GP) to pass Mario Lemieux (96 in 107 GP) for sole possession of first place on the Penguins’ all-time list
  • Penguins forward Jake Guentzel scored his ninth goal of the 2017 Stanley Cup Playoffs to extend his franchise record for goals by a rookie in a single postseason. Guentzel (9-4—13 in 11 GP) also tied Jaromir Jagr (3-10—13 in 1991) for most points by a Penguins rookie in a single postseason
