Blackhawks vs Capitals Recap

What's going on with the Blackhawks these days? The have been out shooting opponents, playing really well. But they have been coming up short lately. The past couple of games we have been out shooting the other team by a wide margin, be we just can't seem to win the games. The most recent game against the Capitals proves just that. The Blackhawks came up scoring first in the first period with Brandon Saad netting a goal with an assist from Andrew Shaw and Marian Hossa. The in the second period Duncan Keith netted a Power Play goal. After that is when the Capitals just went off and scored three unanswered goals. They came from Andre Burakovsky, Marcus Johansson, and Joel Ward. Brandon Holtby the Caps netminder had 38 saves with a save percentage of .950. Corey Crawford got the start and had 21 saves with a save percentage of .875. With the Blackhawks out playing opponents, it's hard to tell what else they can do to perform at the level they have been at the past couple seasons.
