Verhaeghe collected a goal on his only shot in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Capitals.
Verhaeghe entered the Washington zone 1-on-2 and snapped one past goalie Ilya Samsonov from the high slot to round out the scoring 5:36 into the third period. Verhaeghe has scored a goal in four of his last five games after producing just one in his previous 11.
