If you wanted high drama in Game 6 of Capitals vs. Hurricanes, well then you're getting your wish.
An amazing Alex Ovechkin goal gave the Caps a 2-1 advantage after the first period, but Teuvo Teräväinen tied things up less than two minutes into the second period following a bad Jonas Siegenthaler turnover in the Washington zone.

— NBC Sports Capitals (@NBCSCapitals) April 23, 2019Jonas Siegenthaler's first big mistake of the series, in his 3rd game, results in a game-tying goal for the #Canes. Aho made a great play to hit his stick/hand and force a turnover.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) April 23, 2019So many of Carolina's goals are on dumb mistakes/bad decisions by the #Caps. #CapsCanes might be as simple as if the Caps will beat themselves. So far, yes. #ALLCAPS
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) April 23, 2019Neither team scored again in the middle frame, the Caps coming close twice in the closing seconds via John Carlson and Tom Wilson, respectively.
John Carlson and Tom Wilson some great opportunities late. Willy off the deflection/crossbar. Carlson was bested by Mrazek in a 4-on-4 situation/break-in. #Caps #Canes tied 2-2 at end of 2.
— 106.7 The Fan (@1067theFan) April 23, 2019The 2-2 scoreline sets up what should be a fun, terrifying third period, the Caps just 20 minutes away from either advancing to the second round or heading back home for Game 7.
Gird your loins, Caps fans.
