| 0:00.0 | Alan May, this trip had no Brooks Orpick. It had no Cousie and Oshy for a lot of it, no Braden |
| 0:04.9 | Halpy for a lot of it. Get the Caps win three games in the trip. Huge win. And I think it's all because of Tom Wilson being back. And you saw the effect that he had on his teammates, the first game against the Minnesota Wild, their best road game of the season so far. And then next night drastically different. They lose a couple of players. They have Kempney sick and warm up. He misses the game. So definitely it turns out to be a phenomenal road trip for the Caps. Ryan, Billy, Ovi versus Price, was worth the price of admission. Oh, I see what you did there. Usually it's Ovi who gains the upper hand and he did tonight, but Price was awesome. |
| 0:39.7 | It was a great game and the caps win 5-4 in overtime. Thanks to Lars Eller. I'm Rob Carlin. This is the |
| 0:44.7 | Capitals Talk podcast and it starts now. |
| 0:47.7 | Brana. There's Eller. Go! |
| 0:51.2 | Take that! Lars Eller, unbelievable wrist shot! |
| 0:57.0 | And it foils the goaltender, carrying Price blocker's side. |
| 1:01.0 | Half the team is hugging and celebrating with Braden. |
| 1:04.0 | Half the team is celebrating with Lars Ellard. |
| 1:08.0 | It now becomes a fabulous road trip. Big Lars buries it. And the capitals down, Montreal |
| 1:15.2 | 5 to 4. What a totally nutty game that was in Montreal for the caps as they wrap up the road |
| 1:23.3 | trip. They fall behind early, which, Billy, you showed a stat in the pregame show on TV, that in games |
| 1:30.3 | following a Caps win, they've only scored the first goal of that next game once in eight |
| 1:36.4 | games. |
| 1:36.9 | They are constantly chasing a two-game win streak, a very modest two-game win streak. |
| 1:42.4 | They give up the first goal. |
| 1:43.8 | They come back. They lead two-one after streak. They give up the first goal. They come back. |
| 1:44.5 | They lead two-one after one. Three goals in the first minute 35 chases Phoenix Copley, who was very |
| 1:50.8 | good in the first period, but they chase him early in the second period. And then they chip away, |
| 1:56.6 | a backstrom goal, an OV goal, they force overtime, and get that win. |
| 2:01.4 | That was a big gut check, Alan, and they passed the test. |
| 2:05.2 | They absolutely did. |
