WASHINGTON -- It was like old times for the Washington Capitals. Saints Jimmy Graham Two Tone Jerse . Their Big Three -- Alex Ovechkin, Alexander Semin and Nicklas Backstrom -- scored in the same game for the first time since Oct. 30, 2010. The trio led the Capitals to a 4-1 win over the Nashville Predators on Tuesday night. Ovechkin and Backstrom scored first-period goals. Semin scored in the third, and Troy Brouwer added a fourth goal. "I think we want to dictate our game, and we want to dictate our style and this system, so it was pretty cool," Ovechkin said. Washington improved to 5-5 under new coach Dale Hunter. The Capitals are 6-1 in their last seven games against the Predators. "When your top end guys score the confidence goes up for the rest of the bench," Hunter said. "The big guys scored." Michal Neuvirth stopped 20 shots for the Capitals. Starting a third straight game for the first time this season, Neuvirth, who shut out Winnipeg on Thursday, has allowed three goals in that span. "Hes been solid," Brouwer said. "He makes it easy for us to play in front of him. We know if we do make a mistake hes going to be there for us." Nashville lost for the first time in six games, and for the first time in 11 contests, had a game decided by more than one goal. The quirky 10-game streak was two shy of an NHL record, according to STATS LLC. The Capitals grabbed a 2-0 lead in the first period. Ovechkin scored just his fourth goal in 18 games when he took a pass from Karl Alzner at the blue line, and in a blur, cleanly beat goalie Anders Lindback at 7:42 for his 11th goal of the season. "It doesnt matter if Ovie scores, or anyone scores, the team is going right away. It all started with a good first shift," Brouwer said. Backstrom netted his 12th at 15:51. He carried the puck behind the net, skated in front, and slammed a shot past Lindback. Washington dominated play in the first, jumping out to a 10-1 edge in shots. The two-goal outburst in the period was a welcomed change for the Capitals, who had scored only goal in each of their previous three games. "I liked the first period more than anything," Hunter said. "We should have scored more." The Predators Sergei Kostitsyn broke Neuvirths shutout bid 4:40 into the third period with his fifth goal. "We didnt give enough run support for Lindy," Nashville coach Barry Trotz said. "When it was 2-1, we had lots of chances to tie it up, and we didnt." Semins seventh of the season made it 3-1 midway through the third and marked the first time this season he has scored in consecutive games. "I told him after the second period, he has to shoot more," Neuvirth said. Brouwer pushed the lead to 4-1 at 13:46. NOTES: Capitals RW Mike Knuble played in his 1,000th NHL game. The team honoured him in a pre-game ceremony, and each of his teammates wore a jersey with his No. 22 during warmups. ... The Predators recalled D Jonathon Blum and LW Blake Geoffrion from Milwaukee of the AHL. ... Nashville D Kevin Klein didnt make the trip because of flu. ...

"I was ready to play the biggest game of my career," Backstrom said Sunday following the game. "And two-and-a-half hours before the game, I got pulled aside." Backstrom paused, choked with emotion and appeared to be on the verge of tears.LONDON -- The English Football Association has fined both Swansea and Hull 20,000 pounds ($32,700) for a mass confrontation between players during a Premier League match.
