All of them have come in his 417 career games with the Ducks. However, an announced crowd of 12,942 was able to see the Ducks doing what they do best: lose yet another game in a fashion unbecoming of an NHL franchise. The Capitals, who had two early goals from standout right winger Peter Bondra, were the latest team to come to Orange County and feast on the Ducks. The Ducks did make things interesting in the late going as Anaheim defenseman Oleg Tverdovsky cut the margin to one goal when he wristed home a shot with 2:44 left in the game. However, Tverdovsky's goal wasn't able to overcome two Washington breakaway goals and a fluke goal that bounced into the net after ricocheting off center German Titov's tailbone tail·bone n.

The Capitals jumped out to a 3-0 lead early in the second period when Bondra scored his second goal on the power play when he beat struggling goalie Guy Hebert. Hebert, who heard scattered boos from the crowd, is now 0-11-2 with an .892 save percentage and a 3.64 goals-against average since last winning Dec. 17 against Tampa Bay. ``It's tough to say it's (the fault) one guy,'' Charron said of Hebert. ``But when you lose and you've allowed four goals, maybe it was the one big save that could have made the difference. (Washington goalie Olaf) Kolzig made the big save on (Teemu) Selanne after Kariya's goal and that would have made it 3-2. They come right down and score and it's 4-1. He (Kolzig) made the big save.
