Newark, N.J. (AP) - Niclas Bergfors scored two power-play goals 3:13 apart in the third period to break open a tie game and send the New Jersey Devils to a 3-2 victory over the Alex Ovechkin-less Washington Capitals on Wednesday night.
Just seconds after Alexander Semin's hooking penalty gave the Devils their third advantage of the game, Bergfors took a pass from Zach Parise in the right circle and whistled a rising shot over Semyon Varlamov's glove with 8:40 left to make it 3-1.
Bergfors then deflected in Travis Zajac's long shot with 4:50 remaining to give the Devils a two-goal edge.
