Tom Wilson scored two goals as the Washington Capitals defeated the Buffalo Sabres 4-2, marking their fourth consecutive win. Dylan Strome netted the game-winner, while Jakob Chychrun sealed the victory with an empty-net goal.

The Sabres, struggling with a nine-game losing streak, failed to capitalize on their power play, going scoreless in their last four attempts. Logan Thompson's performance in goal helped secure the Capitals' first regulation win at home since early November.
