Wilson's Three-Point Night Leads Capitals in Ovechkin's Final Home Opener · Oct. 7, 2026
Washington won Alex Ovechkin's final NHL home opener, beating Pittsburgh 5-3. Anthony Beauvillier scored on a breakaway 23 seconds in, and after Bryan Rust answered in his season debut, Tom Wilson scored and set up goals from Pierre-Luc Dubois and Alex Tuch to build a 4-1 lead. The Penguins got within one, but Ryan Leonard's power-play goal early in the third restored the cushion.
