NHL Preseason Highlights | Bruins vs. Capitals | October 02, 2025

last year for the Caps. Charlie Lindren, we expect 
to play the whole game. He’s a twotime 20 winner. Game winner. Switch the point of attack. Rolled 
back here for Harris. Shadowed by Laierre. Blumel, a terrific American Hockey League score. Steps 
in and fires. Had it broken up. Rebound in tight there. Brown was kicked aside. And then Charlie 
Lingren makes a beautiful toe save as it comes through and feathers feathers from the point 
then gets in tight. First four shots on goal of this game. Ryan Leonard captured along 
the board. Sunonny Milano closing on the tow drag. Stopped there by Corposalo. Sunny Milano 
getting fancy in DC. Matteo enters the picture. Makrath swivels it back, keeping it in at the 
line. Chzley, good move. He’ll fire. Almost squirts that through. Backhand chance there 
looking to carum. Crystal tried to bank it in. Sunny on his back end to the point. 
Chicken fires. That was blocked down in front. Shik closing. Snap shot. Dribbles in. 
Leonard on the doorstep. Caps have the lead. Leonard right on the doorstep. There’s Ryan 
Leonard setting up. Here comes the shot. And look at him get away from the D to just get 
a chunk of that and put it home. A real good play by Leonard making sure the D can not tie him 
up in front of the net. And that’s huge. That’s Solder Strom in front and he doesn’t have the 
right side or the stick. The isolation of Ryan Leonard. He’s got his second is in his second 
preseason game on the go. Rample slicing in, fires, shoulder pad stop, rebound just wide 
back to the 23-year-old who’s Nadino. Lysel feed it down low. Freddy moves in tight. 
Sprawling Lindren makes the save and he’ll cover on the go. Crystal played that one off 
the board to himself to get it out. Remple away from that poke check. Firesing out of the 
corner. There’s the work down low. Nice work getting that puck out. And here comes the 
shot. Corposal had everything closed off, but it was a good play all around by all three of 
those guys. C. Alex Ovuchkin one against three. Ovetkin’s pass. A good one. One more for Pro 
and a better stop by Corposalo. That pass on the flank gets away. Ovetkin recovers. Slot 
to Crystal. Fire. Head save. Rebound at the doorstep. Corposalo charging the net. There’s the 
pass from Obi to Crystal. the shot and it gets off that left pad and that glove quickly recovers it 
with Frank right in front. Brous trying to get a piece of it. Obie on a nice setup. Crystal just 
about Ethan. Frank has the puck for Washington. Move it quickly all on the exterior. One touch 
pretty passing. Followup chance just stuck wide to the deep slot. A backhand off the inside of the 
post. Rempleles on the far flank. Spun around by Asparo. Slot pass for Matteo. Remple fanned on it. 
Follow. Pants save. Corposalo on rubber his way all night long. There’s a chance. Crystal throws 
it out. Just a little play by Remple. He missires. Ovuchkin thinking about the shot. Chooses pass. 
Snap shot deflected at the doorstep. A sprawling Corposal has it beneath him to the bench. The 
last chance for the Caps. It’s a rink wide pass and there’s a deflection off the defender gets 
to Bro. Aspero is next. Patra through center. Lumel on a backhand try. Kicked away by Charlie 
Lingren. Harris picking up ahead of steam. Patra off the board. Steps to the middle ice and fire 
a stick save. Rebound. Still Ryan Leonard’s lone goal. The one- nothing lead. Matteo galloping in 
for Pasalo. pad save and he was shooting that to try to beat him over the right pad but also 
looking for a rebound. He got one. Look again with another fine stop on Matteo. Mrath starting 
the breakout. A misstep there. Lingren cleans it up on Matte Bluml who’s a they think he is. He 
they think he’s a goal scorer and if you don’t score at this level you’re not going to make 
the team. The trouble is though he’s not going to get a lot of time. He won’t be a topline guy. 
He’s going to have to make it work with quarter. One- nothing Washington. Leonard on the board. 
7 minutes to go in the second which has gone by in a heartbeat. Leonard angles in. Nice pass. 
Front door look and Corposal. Leonard. Here’s another one on the Kurland drag. Good defense 
by Ashboro. I like the idea though. I like the idea the way Ryan Leonard’s using his skill 
to try to create chances. A good glove save for Corposalo as Laierre being changed. He would 
drive one day. I would drive the next. Figured it might be who’s ever on the hot streak. Lindren. 
Oops. That’s in the back of the cage. Second time tonight Charlie’s had an issue on a long dump in. 
This one winds up in the back of the net. Yeah, missed the poke check there. And the Bruins are 
going to be right on the board here making it a game. Hole. Here it is. Stops it. Tries to play 
it. And there’s Tuy’s reach. He’s a big guy and he’s going to get an unassisted goal on that. 
Little pressure there from Tuy. There’s the play. He’s trying to handle the puck to make a pass. 
Doesn’t do either. And it ends up right there between his legs and the reach in a tuy makes it 
a one- one game. 27. Laurai headman. Mccula fires. Glove save. Lindred has Iorio nearby. Vinnie pops 
out of there with a puck. Man, good physicality by Iorio down there. And Marty Faravari. They were 
really good getting to the man and not going on an angle. They took him nicely to the wall. Twoon 
two. Harrison throws a stiff arm out. Power move to the net and it might have went in underneath 
the goalender Lind. It’s in the back of the cage. They poked it in underneath him. Here it is. The 
power move to the net. He falls down and there’s the shot coming off number 62. That looks like the 
goal scorer who got a piece of it there. Harrison and knocking it between the pads of the goalender 
here. And we’ll see if there’s goalie interference or if they determine what this goal will be or 
not. That reverse angle shows you off of Iorio’s skate then through the wickets of Lingren. 
You can see why he brought him in. You know, he’s a great guy around the room. Great guy with 
young players. He’s going to mean a lot to this franchise. Chzley to Farravari. Farravari 
to the front. Gloved by Corposalo. Woo! box, but Perau should be going. Crystal steps in, 
shimies rink wide for Ovetkin through the scene. Crystal to the front door. Deflected 
away. Elia Pro was looking for the tip in. That’s a pretty good play by Corposalo 
to kick that puck far enough out of the wash there to not allow a second opportunity. 
The Caps, as I mentioned in the intermission, are going to need second and third shots, it looks 
like, to beat Corpus Olive. Elia Proise for Andrew Crystal. That pass cross rink was intercepted. 
Steves is away. Steves closing in. Fires, dribbles it through. Lindren and wide. DPro 
and the bees. Bad pass. Blumel with the intercept. Back hand. Good save there. Rebound. 
Lindren pocky game. Here’s that failed clearer. Blumel comes in. He’s a guy, as you mentioned, 
Joe, you don’t want to give the puck away. 89. Keep it on the outside. Elia strong to the 
front. Chzley rockets one off the blocker of under six minutes remaining in regulation. 
They send Miro Neenko back. He’s tied up with Soders. Maros Nachenko. Good pants 
save by Corposal. Strength of the games tonight. This might be the guy who gets the 
tying goal. Maros Nenko’s been everywhere. Patra drop pass. Blumel head fake. Fire.
