The Utah Hockey Club picked up a 5-4 shootout win over the Washington Capitals today. There was only two games today before the NHL goes into a two-week hiatus for the Four Nations Faceoff. Utah suffered a loss midway through the first period as Connor Ingram left the game with an upper-body injury just under 13 minutes into the game. Ingram had stopped nine of the 11 shots he faced before leaving the game. Karel Vejmelka replaced Ingram and stopped 30 of the 32 shots he faced. With two points in today’s game, they now sit six points back of the final wild-card spot in the Western Conference heading into the break.
