WASHINGTON — Alex Ovechkin scored in his third straight game, Braden Holtby made 26 saves and the Capitals handed the Devils their first loss of the season with a 6-2 victory on Thursday night.
Marcus Johansson scored the go-ahead goal early in the second period for the Capitals (2-0-2). Chris Brown, Nicklas Backstrom, Joel Ward and Andre Burakovsky also scored for Washington, and Troy Brouwer, Mike Green and Matt Niskanen each had two assists.
Rookie defenseman Damon Severson scored twice for the Devils (3-1-0), who were seeking their first 4-0 start since 1995-96.
Cory Schneider had 21 saves before being lifted at 3:25 of the third after Ward's shot from the blue line caromed off the end boards, hit Schneider and went in, making it 5-2.
Mike Cammalleri had an assist, giving him points in each of his first four games with the Devils. Cammalleri joined Neal Broten (seven games), Bobby Holik (five games) and Doug Gilmour as Devils who picked up points in their first four games with the team.
Devils forward Martin Havlat left with a bloody nose in the second period after Jason Chimera shoved him and Havlat collided with referee Darcy Burchell behind the Washington net.
With the score tied 2-2 late in the first, and New Jersey on a power play, Holtby made a sliding save to rob Jaromir Jagr and blanked the Devils for the final two periods.
