Malkin's late goal lifts Penguins past Ovechkin, Caps 4-3 | |
PITTSBURGH (AP) Evgeni Malkin beat Darcy Kuemper on a breakaway with 1:20 left in regulation to lift the Pittsburgh Penguins over the Washington Capitals 4-3 on Saturday night. Alex Ovechkin scored his 42nd goal of the season and 822nd of his career during a furious third-period rally by the Capitals that saw them erase a three-goal deficit. Washington drew even when Dylan Strome flipped the puck into an open net with 2:44 to go in regulation. Malkin's 25th goal of the season - a wrist shot that zipped to the far post - a little over a minute later helped the Penguins create a little breathing room over their pursuers for the Eastern Conference's second wild-card spot.
