With a chance to bury the Capitals, the Rangers fell flat on home ice Monday. The two wins in Washington appeared a distant memory in a 4-0 loss. Alexander Ovechkin didn't score but assisted on the first two Washington goals, which effectively buried the Rangers. This game turned on a 14-second stretch in the first period. Alexander Semin got the Capitals on the board at the 6:57 mark. Ryan Callahan had a chance to tie it but missed the open net, and, 14 seconds later, Semin scored his second goal at the other end of the ice. Given the Rangers' trouble scoring goals, fans at the Garden knew it would be a long night. And it was.
