NEW YORK - Tom Poti had a goal and two assists and the Washington Capitals won 5-3 Sunday in Game 6 against the New York Rangers, who were playing without suspended coach John Tortorella.

Rangers goalie Henrik Lundqvist didn't make it to the third period for the second straight game, and Poti torched his former team as the Capitals tied the first-round playoff series and set up a decisive Game 7 on Tuesday night in Washington.
