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. It was Eichels fourth game back from a high ankle sprain in the same leg that forced him to miss two months. ... Beagles goal was Washingtons first at even strength since the third period of a 4-2 loss at Toronto on Nov. 26, a span of more than 2 hours and 28 minutes of game time. ... Sabres D Erik Burgdoerfer made his NHL debut after he was recalled from AHL Rochester to step in for D Josh Gorges (broken foot). ...

"I was fortunate to play many years at this level with a great organization and unbelievable teammates," said Hejduk in a statement. SINGAPORE -- Mexican driver Sergio Perez expects to announce his 2017 Formula One plans before the month is out, with a new contract at his Force India team the likely scenario.Perez had been ready to announce a deal at the Singapore Grand Prix this week, but contractual details were not finalized.We got some delays, but I really hope that before the next race we can definitely announce where Ill be racing, Perez said.Ill always say Ill be very happy if I can stay, if everything is fine for me to stay where I am.His strong performances this season -- he leads teammate Nico Hulkenberg by 16 points and has led Force Indias challenge for fourth in the constructors championship -- fostered interest from rival teams, but Perez is bullish about his teams prospects under the new F1 design regulations in 2017.When we had the massive regulation change for 2014, on my third race I was on the podium for the team, so it shows that Force India is capable of adapting well to new regulations, Peerez said.ddddddddddddHopefully next year, we can do another step forward, which is going to be very tough. Now youre fighting Ferrari, Red Bull, Mercedes, so its going to be very tough but I fully believe in the team.Less certain about their futures are Renault drivers Kevin Magnussen and Jolyon Palmer, who have received no indication from the team whether they will be contracted next season.I dont know whats going on behind the scenes, Magnussen said. Ive read in the press that theres been a delay and the decision could take a long time.I was hoping for a decision between these two races, but clearly it hasnt come and things are taking longer than I hoped for.Palmer was also in the dark about his future.Ill know when I know, Palmer said. I know Im in the mix but well just see how things pan out.Every race from now on is a chance to show what I can do. ' ' '
