Per Katie Carrera, here are tonight’s line combos and D-pairings. Braden Holtby is back between the pipes:
Marcus Johansson – Nicklas Backstrom – Alex Ovechkin
Martin Erat – Brooks Laich – Troy Brouwer
Jason Chimera – Mikhail Grabovski – Joel Ward
John Erskine and Jack Hillen remain unhealthy scratches, Jay Beagle a healthy one.
