EDMONTON -- Pierre-Luc Dubois had a goal and an assist for the Washington Capitals, who won 3-2 against the Edmonton Oilers at Rogers Place on Tuesday. Matt Roy and Tom Wilson also scored, and Logan Thompson made 31 saves for the Capitals (32-10-5), who have won five in a row and earned points in 11 straight games (8-0-3).

In a game where the Capitals struggled to get much going offensively, it was Thompson who helped hold down the fort. The Capitals' stars also stayed hot, with Pierre-Luc Dubois putting up another multi-point outing to help power D.C.'s offense and Tom Wilson striking again.

But the Capitals were expecting the game to be “a little bit nasty,” as Coach Spencer Carbery put it after his team won, 2-1, in overtime behind two goals from center Pierre-Luc Dubois, who was at the center of the high-emotion proceedings throughout.

Pierre-Luc Dubois had a goal and an assist and the visiting Washington Capitals won their fifth straight game, 3-2 over the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday night.
