Via Chuck Gormley, the Caps will stick with the lineup that won four straight – and dropped two straight – in front of Braden Holtby:
Martin Erat – Nicklas Backstrom – Alex Ovechkin
Brooks Laich – Marcus Johansson – Troy Brouwer
Jason Chimera – Mikhail Grabovski – Joel Ward
Aaron Volpatti – Michael Latta – Tom Wilson
That means Eric Fehr, Jay Beagle and Dmitry Orlov are out as healthy scratches once more, with John Erskine and Jack Hillen out with injuries and Michal Neuvirth making sure the bench door opens and closes properly.
