The Capitals got goals from Alex Ovehckin and a returning Evgeny Kuznetsov to beat the Golden Knights 3-1 in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final on Saturday in Washington, D.C., taking a 2-1 lead in the series.

Washington was the aggressor in Game 3 though things remained scoreless until Ovechkin beat Marc-Andre Fleury 70 seconds into the second period for a 1-0 lead. Kuznetsov, who missed most of Game 2 with an injury, added a goal later in the period, adding to his NHL-best 27 points this postseason.

Braden Holtby didn’t have an iconic save this time — like he did in Game 2 — but was effective when challenged on Saturday night, saving 21 of 22 shots in the win.
