Washington, DC (Sports Network) - The Washington Capitals are the only
unbeaten team left in the NHL.
The Detroit Red Wings, by a six-goal margin, lost their chance to say the
same.
Mike Green had two power play goals and two assists Saturday and the Capitals
coasted to a 7-1 win over Detroit in a game between the only undefeated teams
left in the league.
Mathieu Perreault also scored twice for the Capitals, who are a franchise-best
7-0 to open the season. Alex Ovechkin had two assists and Tomas Vokoun made 32
saves to improve to 6-0 in his first season with Washington.
The Red Wings, who were trying to match the best start in team history, got
their lone goal from Niklas Kronwall on a power play in the second period. Ty
Conklin allowed all seven Capitals goals on 25 shots.
