BOSTON, March 10 (UPI) -- Jay Beagle put Washington in front for good midway through the second period Saturday and the Capitals held on to edge Boston 4-3.
Washington let a two-goal lead get away, then built another two-goal advantage on second-period goals from Beagle and Brooks Laich. Beagle's goal was only the fifth of his career in 68 games scattered over four seasons.
