Caps 5, Canes 1

Cody Eakin gets a pie in the face delivered by Ovi, a shaving cream pie specialist

Ovi on Cody:

I didn’t see him celebrate like crazy but he’s going to be great player. He has unbelievable skill and you can see how easy he put puck in the net.

Eakin (his first NHL goal), Halpern, Neuvy and Ovi talk after the game

Ovi:

I had a couple of chances... I missed a couple real good chances in the second and third. All the time, like, I have chance; it was on the power play or in the third period. Sometimes it just not go in. I feel pretty good about my game. If I don't have chances, of course I was pissed off and still what I'm doing over there. But I like how our line play offensively, defensively, especially today.

Ovi's stats:

2 assists, +1, total ice time 20:13, 21 shifts, average 00:57, PP 05:01, even 15:12, 3 shots on goal, 5 attempts blocked, 2 missed, 1 faceoff lost

Ovi logged most ice time among forwards, Backstrom had 19:17, Semin 17:24.
