It was a dominant final 40 minutes of hockey for the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday night, but the first 20 told the real story as the Penguins fell 4-3 to the Washington Capitals. Tom Wilson scored less than a minute into the game as the Capitals raced out to a 4-0 lead before the Penguins scored three unanswered goals to bring the contest back to within a goal heading into the third period. The Penguins had chances to tie the game throughout the third but could not find the equalizer. [Pensburgh]
