Washington defeated Philadelphia 5–2 on October 28 at Capital One Arena, NHL.com’s game report confirms.

Alex Tuch and Jordan Kyrou each scored twice, while Aliaksei Protas added his first goal of the season, according to the Associated Press. The Capitals finished a five-game homestand with four wins.

Tuch scored only 1:50 into the game and later added an empty-net goal. His eighth and ninth goals continued a productive start to his first season with Washington following a trade from Buffalo.

Dylan Strome recorded three assists. Jack St. Ivany and Pierre-Luc Dubois each contributed two, and Logan Thompson made 23 saves after missing Saturday’s game with a lower-body injury.

Sean Couturier and Matvei Michkov scored for Philadelphia. Michkov’s ninth goal of the season was his fifth on the power play. Joseph Woll stopped 25 shots as the Flyers lost their third consecutive game.

Washington travels to Nashville on Thursday. Philadelphia next hosts Utah on Sunday.
