For 65 minutes, Jimmy Howard played Davant... AdamsJerseybrilliantly in goal for the Detroit Red Wings.

Then, quite suddenly, his domination of the Washington Capitals ended.

T.J. Oshie and http:/... Kuznetsov scored in the shootout, and the Capitals got a key goal from Alex Ovechkin in a 3-2 victory Tuesday night.

After Ovechkin tied it at 10:51 of the third period, Washington killed a Detroit power play in overtime to force the shootout.

Oshie started by beating Howard, who had 39 saves through overtime. Gustav Nyquist was denied by Braden[url=http://www.packersshopnfl.com/WOMENS_YOUTH_DAVID_BAKHTIARI_JERSEY.htm... Holtby on the other end, and Kuznetsov followed with an easy goal off a deke to his right.

Pavel Datsyuk then missed for Detroit, giving the Capitals the win.

''Just two good moves. It's just too bad,'' Howard said. ''Would have liked to pick up the extra point.''

Despite the loss, the Red Wings earned [url=http://www.saintsonlineofficialshop.com/WOMENS_YOUTH_AKIEM_HICKS_JERSEY.htm... Hicks Jersey
a point in an 11th straight game (8-0-3) in their longest streak since 2010.

''I think when you get to overtime, when you get to shootout you're leaving it to chance a little bit,'' Red Wings coach Jeff Blashill said. ''That's the reality of life sometimes. So I think with (Howard) I'd focus on the fact that he did a great job and I don't think we get the point if he doesn't play great.''

Justin Williams[url=http://www.saintsonlineofficialshop.com/WOMENS_YOUTH_ANDRUS_PEAT_JE... scored in the opening minute for Washington, which extended its point streak to eight games.

This was only the Capitals' second shootout of the season, and coach Barry Trotz welcomed the opportunity.

''Everybody talks about the shooters, but we've got a pretty good goaltender and we feel confident if we get to that point,'' Trotz said.

Henrik Zetterberg and Tomas Jurco scored for Detroit. Ten of the Red Wings' last 11 games have been decided by one goal, as have each of their three games with the Capitals this season.
