The Cal Reflames put up a fight midway through their game against the Washington Capitals, but couldn't hold on, dropping a 7-3 decision. They dominated the second period with three quick goals, including one from Matveg Readin of a sharp passing play and two short handed tallies from. Blake Coleman and Yegor Sharrangovic. Mid-out performers included Coleman, who earned first-star honors with his fourth-short-handed goal of the season and the 20-year-old Gridden, who's been turning heads with his net front aggression and strong underlying stats. Newcomer Victor Olasin made his flames debut, logging nearly 16 minutes at even strength-plus power playtime, while defenders like Alimata and Zayn Perrek show promise to spice some tough bounces. Devon Cooley had an off-night in net, but with deflections playing a role and no-must-win pressure, the team shakes it off ahead of Tuesday's match-up.
