As the GIF shows, it was not his stick. Then five seconds later, another Caps penalty.

Caps overcame the calls with some help from the Flyers.

04:25 Washington Nicklas Backstrom - High-sticking - 4 minutes
04:30 Washington Matt Niskanen - Hooking - 2 minutes
06:55 Philadelphia Ryan White - Stick Holding - 2 minutes

Then Backstrom scores near the midway point of the 2nd, Caps up 1-0.
