The 32-year-old Ovechkin missed his shootout try during Wednesday night’s 1-0 loss to the New York Rangers.

”That’s one thing that Ovie does, is that (if) he had a failure, he sort of says `I’m going to make up for it’,” Washington coach Barry Trotz said. ”There was no doubt that thing was in.”

Lars Eller and Brett Connolly also scored for the Capitals, who snapped a three-game losing streak and won their 12th consecutive game over the Bruins.

Washington also ended a scoring drought that lasted almost nine full periods and overcame deficits of 2-0 in the first period and 3-2 in the third.

And then they get a power play shortly thereafter.”

Ovechkin’s goal was Washington’s first on the power play in six games.

”It was very important for us on the power play to kind of bounce back,” Ovechkin said. ”It doesn’t matter if I score or somebody else scores. Just to take the pressure off our shoulders.”

Backes’ second goal put Boston ahead 3-2 and came just moments after Washington killed off its fifth penalty of the game. T.J. Oshie gave the puck away in his own end, and Danton Heinen found Backes open for a shot that struck Holtby’s glove on its way in.

Even then, Washington found a way to extend its Boston winning streak.

”We turned the puck over and just killed the momentum http://www.tennesseetitansteamonline.com/rashaan-evans-jersey , and mentally that’s really tough for a group that’s been battling all night to get back,” Trotz said. ”And I just like our response. We just kept staying with the program.”
