The Atlanta Thrashers entered Friday's game against Washington riding a three-game losing streak, and also having lost six of their previous seven games. They managed to break out of their recent slump in a big, impressive way, knocking off the Southeastern Division leading Capitals with a 5-0 win. They received goals from five different players, including a highlight reel goal from 19-year-old rookie Alexander Burmistrov.Burmistrov, the No. 8 overall pick in this past summers draft, has been impressive this season due to his advanced defensive play for a rookie, and the creativity offensively is starting to show up as well. Friday's game was a nice example due to this play late in the third period that saw Burmistrov dance with the puck past Washington defenseman Jeff Schultz, as well as goaltender Michal Neuvirth. The goal is Burmistrov's third of the season.
