In a Tuesday night matchup, the Washington Capitals secured a 3-1 victory against the Calgary Flames, propelled by strong performances from Logan Thompson and a trio of goal scorers: Pierre-Luc Dubois, Dylan Strome, and Aliaksei Protas. Thompson made 32 saves, continuing his impressive run with an 11-0-1 record over his last 12 starts. After the Flames' Blake Coleman equalized on a power play, Strome quickly responded with a backhand goal during a five-on-three advantage.

The game marked Andrew Mangiapane's return to Calgary, where he received a heartfelt reception from fans. The Flames also welcomed back veteran defenseman Tyson Barrie, who assisted on Coleman's goal after a lengthy absence.
