WASHINGTON -- Trailing by a goal, the Washington Capitals spent their second intermission venting about their poor play. Marcus Johansson used the rest of the game to lead the comeback.Johansson scored the tying goal late in the third period and got the winner midway through overtime to rally the Capitals to a 3-2 victory over the Buffalo Sabres.We talked in there, pulled ourselves together and played a lot better, said Johansson, who has four goals in his last five games to raise his season total to 11. It wasnt pretty, but we got the puck deep and we got it done, and thats all that matters.Jay Beagle added the Capitals first even-strength goal in three games as Washington snapped a three-game losing skid.Braden Holtby made 31 saves in the victory, the Capitals second over the Sabres in an 11-day stretch, with losses to Toronto, the New York Islanders and Tampa Bay sandwiched in between.Weve been going down a little bit of the wrong path right now, said John Carlson, who assisted on Johanssons tying goal. The world isnt ending, but we know its not good enough for this group and our expectations of each other and ourselves.Even with the victory, Capitals coach Barry Trotz still left the Verizon Center frustrated by captain Alex Ovechkin, who picked up his fifth minor penalty in three games.Unacceptable. Hes their leader. He cant take those penalties, Trotz said. Im going to address it harshly with him tomorrow.Kyle Okposo scored his team-leading eighth goal of the season to give the Sabres the lead in the second period, and Zemgus Girgensons also scored early for Buffalo.Robin Lehner made 30 stops for the visitors, who were forced by injury to play two rookie defenders with a combined one game of previous NHL experience.Still, the Sabres outshot the Capitals 16-7 in a second period that ended with Buffalo leading 2-1, before Washington turned the tables with a 16-9 edge and a goal in the third.Buffalo was trying to win three out of four for the second time this season.I mean give them credit, theyre a good team, but I think were starting to sit back and they have speed, you know? Lehner said. I think we see that we can play. Weve just got to stop changing, changing how we play.Washington turned up its pressure as the third period went on and eventually induced Evander Kane into a hooking penalty with under 6 1/2 minutes remaining.Johansson tied it just five seconds after the ensuing faceoff, redirecting Carlsons shot into traffic.Washington killed a tripping penalty on Beagle before the third ended.Then Johanssons winner came 2:38 into the extra period as he took a cross-ice pass from Dmitry Orlov and fired a one-time that beat Lehner over his left pad.I think they got a little bit tired, Johansson said of the goal. I was actually a little bit tired too. But I think (Evgeny Kuznetsov) and (Orlov) both made great plays to set that up, and I just tried to get it on net. It was a good feeling to see it go in.Game notes Buffalo C Jack Eichel finished the game despite appearing to hurt his left leg in a second-period tangle with Capitals D Orlov.

Christian Pulisic Jersey .com) - Christian Ponder will get another chance to prove himself for the Minnesota Vikings, with head coach Leslie Frazier announcing Wednesday that the struggling quarterback will start this weekends game against the Green Bay Packers. Kell Brook has defended trainer Dominic Ingle amid criticism of his decision to throw in the towel during his WBC and IBF middleweight title defeat by Gennady Golovkin.With Brook under intense pressure from the champions latest assault, already appearing tired and his right eye cut and swollen, Ingle ended the fight to conclude a resilient performance.The challenger was taken to hospital with a broken eye socket before being released in the early hours of Sunday morning. He is to be operated on in the coming week, before preparing for an eventual return to the ring at light-middleweight.I came back after the second round and said I cant see out of the right eye, Dominic, Brook, 30, told Sky Sports. I was talking to him, and he knows me, he saw me growing up as a kid.Hes like a father figure. It was the right decision and I can fight another day. I was getting caught, and getting caught. It could have ended up seriously bad.As much as the loss has been gutting and upsetting, Im excited and happy the fans have seen a great battle against a great fighter, a throwback fighter.Im looking forward to getting straight back in the top boys. Ive had a taste of this magnitude of fight and I want this again. Ill be back and Ill be twice as strong and twice as fast.Brook had been the significant underdog having stepped up from welterweight against one of the worlds leading and most destructive fighters.dddddddddddd Few observers believed him capable of winning, but his promoter Eddie Hearn regardless maintained fighting Golovkin was the right thing to do.Peter Nelson [executive president of American television network HBO] has already come up to me and said: We need to talk about Kell Brook, said Hearn. That was part of the plan: to broaden the brand. So actually, it was a very smart move.Brooks domestic rival Amir Khan last fought at 155lbs when losing to Mexicos Saul Alvarez in May but is expected to return at welterweight in 2017.The weight Brook gained to challenge Golovkin, combined with his previous, intense struggles to make the 147lb limit means he is likely incapable of returning there. Hearn, however, again spoke of his desire to match the two together.As a promoter there is nothing better in a build-up than two fighters who dont particularly like each other, the 37-year-old said.For now its about getting that eye socket tidied up, having some rest and hell probably be returning in the spring, summer next year.
