NASHVILLE. — Nashville (4-4-5) got 29 saves from Juuse Saros, scored two five-on-five goals and had Filip Forsberg's first multi-goal game of the year, but still lost 4-3 to the Washington Capitals (8-4-0).

"I thought we lost a little bit of momentum at different times during the game," Andrew Brunette said. "I thought we put ourselves in a really good position with 10 minutes, and unfortunately it was a goal that was probably preventable."
