Much was made of the time and energy expended by Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals when they made a midseason switch to a more defensive-oriented style.

Coach Bruce Boudreau was decidedly disappointed to see his top-seeded team abandon that new strategy and revert to the go-go, think-about-scoring play of the past during a loss to the fifth-seeded Tampa Bay Lightning in Game 1 of their Eastern Conference semifinal series.

When the teams meet again in Washington for Game 2 on Sunday, Boudreau wants the Capitals to go back to the game plan.

"We have to be a little more patient," Boudreau said while his team practiced Saturday, a day after losing 4-2 to Tampa Bay.

The Capitals led 2-1 with four minutes left in the second period. But the Lightning scored twice before that period ended, and added an empty-netter in the game's last minute.

"We got caught up when it was 2-1," Boudreau said.
