Neither team has won at home in this series, and winning at Capital One Arena has been particularly hard for the Capitals in the Stanley Cup Playoffs of late. This season has been a hard one for him: He missed six games with the fourth documented concussion of his career, and he struggled to find his scoring touch for months after that. It's just the will to win a battle, and I don't know, for some reason, that gets me going. "We just got to move by it and get ready for our next game", Tortorella said. "So, it means a lot that Holts noticed, but we've still got a long ways to go, and I've got a lot more in me to show out there and to play that similar style". Obviously, the next game is a real pivotal game. Someone is going to take the lead in this series, and then your back is against the wall. "But I think we have been since we got here, and we've just got to do it at home". Kuznetsov added an empty-net goal with 2:19 left in the game.
Oshie missed two of the last three games of the regular season, including a date in St. Louis against his old team, the Blues. It's not clear if he will play in Game 5 on Saturday.
Still, the last time the Capitals played a Game 7 at home, they lost 2-0 to the Pittsburgh Penguins in the Eastern Conference Second Round last season.
Washington's top-six forward corps has struggled to get five-on-five this series, and the second line with Oshie and center Nicklas Backstrom has yet to score at even strength.
That loss should serve as a painful reminder that the Capitals shouldn't be satisfied now. Instead, the workmanlike Washington Capitals turned in their most complete game of the playoffs, putting away the Columbus Blue Jackets to tie their series at two games apiece. More likely than not, it seems that they'll have to settle with winning it in Washington if they're able to beat out the Capitals. "Our goal is to win a Stanley Cup, and that's what we viewed as our best chance after losing the first two". I think it's the most fun part of our sport is when everyone's giving their best and it's you versus another guy. So I don't think we've ever doubted ourselves that way. "We came into this building with the right mindset".

Longtime Voice of Patriots, Gil Santos, Dies at 78
In the wake of the news, Socci and his fellow broadcaster Scott Zolak offered their thoughts on Twitter about Santos' impact. The former voice of the New England Patriots Gil Santos passed away Thursday on his 80th birthday.
"We've been a confident group all year", said Washington goalie Braden Holtby, who finished with 23 saves.
The Columbus Blue Jackets returned home to Nationwide Arena looking to build on their two-game lead over the Washington Capitals in the first round of the 2018 Stanley Cup Playoffs, but the opposite proved to be true in Games 3 and 4 this week.
But Washington also has needed him to take the next step, and he came away frustrated with his contributions in the first two games. Tom Wilson and Alexander Ovechkin each had a goal and an assist for Washington. Ovechkin has three goals and three assists in the four games. Capitals 4, Blue Jackets 1.
Whatever momentum Columbus still had went out the window Thursday night.
The Capitals jumped out to a 1-0 lead when right winger Tom Wilson scored on a one-timer with 13:44 remaining in the first period.
