Capitals coach Peter Laviolette praised Lindgren, especially for his poise after the Jets made it 4-2 at 3:29 of the third. Adam Lowry and Pierre-Luc Dubois scored for the Jets , who had a season-best four-game victory run halted.“We didn’t give up,” Dubois said. “Down 4-0, we kept going and kept pushing. Their goalie played well.
