No farewell address for Washington

Ovechkin attacks, Holtby defends
30 saves later, rookie Canadian goaltender Braden Holtby helped navigate his team to Game 7 with a little help from his friends. Alex Ovechkin and Jason Chimera chimed in with a goal apiece while veteran Nicklas Backstrom added two assists to keep Washington afloat. The Caps thwarted elimination with a 2-1 Game 6 win over New York, sending the series to final deliberation. The Caps will have to win a second straight Game 7 on the road Saturday to advance to the conference finals.
