Charlie Lindgren's Heroics Lead Capitals to 3-1 Win Over Hurricanes

The Capitals snapped a two-game losing streak with standout goaltending and timely scoring against their division rivals.

Washington Capitals goaltender Charlie Lindgren made 24 saves, including a highlight-reel windmill stop, to secure the victory.
The Capitals scored late in the first and second periods, with goals from Aliaksei Protas, Jakub Vrana, and Connor McMichael.
Connor McMichael's goal marked his team-leading 16th of the season, while Jakub Vrana scored for the first time since returning from injury.
Seth Jarvis scored the Hurricanes' lone goal in the third period, as Carolina's struggles on the road continued with a 0-4-1 record in their last five away games.
The Capitals improved to 10-4-2 at home and remain competitive despite the absence of captain Alex Ovechkin, who is sidelined with a broken fibula.
