WASHINGTON -- The Washington Capitals beat the Buffalo Sabres one day after Thanksgiving. Theres been little worth showing thanks for the Capitals ever since while the Sabres won two of their last three.Washington (13-7-3) lost its third straight game Saturday as Tampa Bay prevailed 2-1. The Capitals had little success against Lightning goalie Ben Bishop, who had 34 saves through overtime.The latest setback came after a 3-0 home loss against the New York Islanders on Thursday. The Capitals are back in their building for Mondays matchup with the Sabres.Were looking for that real precise goal, Coach Barry Trotz told the Washington Post following Saturdays road loss. Sometimes youve just got to simplify a little bit. Just shoot the puck. Weve got some good shooters. Right now, theyre a little bit dry.The Capitals are averaging 2.52 goals, which tied them with the Islanders for 18th entering Sunday. Washington ranked second with 3.02 goals last season.Stalwart Alex Ovechkin is among the league-leader with 12 goals, but the wing threat hasnt scored since recording a hat trick on Nov. 23 against the St. Louis Blues.We need to be more gritty and go in front of the net, center Nicklas Backstrom said. Instead of all three guys trying to cycle the puck all of the time, we need at least one guy in front of the net for shots and then rebounds. I mean, thats the kind of goals that go in these days. We have to be able to go in front of the net and go to the dirty areas and create second chances.Daniel Winnik, Marcus Johansson and Brett Connolly scored for the Capitals in the Nov. 25 win over the Sabres.Buffalo (9-10-5) rebounded with nine combined goals in back-to-back wins before falling 2-1 Saturday against the Boston Bruins.While the loss wasnt the desired result, the lone goal scored was something of a positive development because of who found the net.Evander Kane, who missed time this season after suffering four cracked ribs in the season opener, scored for the first time in 13 games this campaign.It was just good to get the first one out of the way, Kane told the Buffalo News following the home loss. When you have multiple games together and you dont score, being a goal-scorer thats a slump. I feel I have an opportunity to score every game, so it was just nice to get it.The left wing had 20 goals in 65 games in 2015-16. Kane has points in three straight games.The one thing we keep working and urging Evander to do is shoot the puck, Sabres coach Dan Bylsma said Saturday, per the Buffalo News. He hasnt shot the puck this year the way he normally does, and hes had opportunities to do it.Buffalo will play without Josh Gorges for several weeks following the revelation from Bylsma that the defenseman suffered a non-displaced foot fracture after blocking a shot Thursday against the New York Rangers. Gorges, a steady part of Buffalos rotation, sat out Saturdays loss. Reds Jerseys China .

Viru Sibanda (59 off 46 balls) hit a maiden T20I half century for Zimbabwe, helping them to 158-8 from their 20 overs.Sibanda put on 61 for the fifth wicket with Malcolm Waller (26) after Zimbabwe struggled at the start, losing four wickets inside eight overs.However, both were dismissed inside four balls in the 17th over as Zimbabwe again lost a cluster of quick wickets before a crucial unbeaten 30 off 13 balls from Elton Chigumbura - including three sixes - helped them to a winning score.Jamie Atkinson (53 off 44) hit fifty for Hong Kong, but with the required run-rate creeping above 13-an-over, he fell in the 17th over.Tanwir Azfal (31no off 17) briefly threatened to take the game to the wire, striking three fours and a six, and Zimbabwe will have been particularly worried when Chigumbura dropped the Hong Kong captain on 17.With 30 needed from the final two overs, Tendai Chatara (2-28) took two wickets in two balls to find himself on a hat-trick. He could not take it, but Zimbabwe would close the game out for the win.After Hong Kong won the toss and chose to field, they benefited from some dozy running by Hamilton Masakadza (20 off 13), the Zimbabwe skipper was run out with his bat not grounded and his foot off the floor when a direct hit clattered into the stummps.dddddddddddd Sibanda acknowledges the crowd after reaching his half-century The impressive Tanwir (2-19) then removed Richmond Mutumbami - for a duck - and Sean Williams (12) as Zimbabwe stumbled to 62-4.The scoring rate was still high thanks to Sibandas efforts at the other end, and he rebuilt with Waller, notching a vital fifty-partnership.Aizaz Khan (2-33) removed both in the same over and another run out meant Zimbabwe had lost three wickets for four runs and were suddenly struggling to set a decent score, before Chigumburas fireworks from the final two overs.Hong Kong made a slow start to their reply, hitting only five boundaries and one six in the first 10 overs, scoring 48 and losing Ryan Campbell and Babar Hayat, both for nine.Atkinson received some useful support from Mark Chapman (19 off 17) and Anshuman Rath (13 off 8), but perished soon after reaching his fifty, and Hong Kongs hopes of an unlikely win disappeared with him, despite Tanwirs best efforts.Sky Sports is the only place you can watch all 35 games in 27 days of the 2016 ICC World T20.
