Beagle's last-second heroics give Capitals stunning win

No reason to rush, Jay Beagle.
The Washington Capitals' forward scored with two seconds remaining for a 4-3 win against the Carolina Hurricanes on Friday. It's the latest go-ahead regulation goal in franchise history, eclipsing the mark set by Alexander Semin (59.49) in a 3-2 win on Nov. 6, 2008, also against the Hurricanes.

It's the fifth go-ahead goal in the final minute of regulation in the NHL this season.
Beagle banged in a bouncing puck thrown on net by Nicklas Backstrom, slipping it just past the glove of Hurricanes goalie Cam Ward.
