The Washington Capitals had pulled their goaltender and were pressing for the tying goal in the frantic final minute of regulation against the Anaheim Ducks. It was a perfect opportunity for two-time NHL MVP Alex Ovechkin to work his magic. Except for the fact that he was on the bench. Nicklas Backstrom scored the tying goal with 42 seconds left in regulation, then added the game-winner at 2:18 of overtime to lift the Capitals to a 5-4 victory Tuesday night.
