WASHINGTON (AP) — T.J. Oshie returned to the Washington Capitals’ lineup and was honored for playing in 1,000 NHL games. Oshie returned after missing the past two games with injury. He had two assists in a 3-0 win against Winnipeg. The 37-year-old winger has been out off and on this season dealing with nagging back problems that have threatened to derail his career. But with Tom Wilson serving a six-game suspension, the Capitals could use a healthy Oshie down the stretch as they try to return to the playoffs.
