Brady Tkachuk and Tom Wilson dropped gloves during the clash between the Washington Capitals and Ottawa Senators on Monday.

The big boys are throwin’ ’em this evening! Ottawa Senators captain Brad Tkachuk and Washington Capitals forward Tom Wilson elected to drop the gloves this evening, giving fans a true heavyweight showdown.

Tom Wilson fought Brady Tkachuk late in the first period, scored on the power play in the second and assisted on Martin Fehervary’s goal in the third to help the Washington Capitals end their season-worst losing streak at three games by beating the Ottawa Senators 5-4 in a shootout.

On Monday night, the Washington Capitals blew a three-goal advantage to the Ottawa Senators before prevailing 5-4 in a shootout. The Capitals scored twice to get Capital One Arena rocking early.
