Bruins hope to address road woes in visit to Capitals

The struggle to get their offense in gear went a long way toward the Boston Bruins seeing their 13-game home winning streak come to a halt.

The Bruins will look for better execution on Saturday afternoon when they bid to end a seven-game road losing skid (0-3-4) against the Washington Capitals.

The Capitals halted the Buffalo Sabres' eight-game winning streak on Thursday with a 2-1 victory. It moved Washington within five points of Boston for the second wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference.
