Tonight’s 8-Bit Lines: The Return of Justin Peters

No morning skate today, so stay tuned for the status of Eric Fehr (who missed last night’s game with a lower-body injury. With that in mind, it’s likely that the Caps go with a lineup similar to the one that faced the Preds in Nashville, with one notable exception: Justin Peters in net, making his return after six weeks off. Here’s a look at what he could see in front of him:

8-19-65

Alex OvechkinNicklas BackstromAndre Burakovsky

90-92-20

Marcus JohanssonEvgeny Kuznetsov Troy Brouwer

21-83-42

Brooks LaichJay BeagleJoel Ward

25-46-43

Jason ChimeraMichael LattaTom Wilson

44-74

Brooks OrpikJohn Carlson

27-2
Karl AlznerMatt Niskanen

38-52

Jack HillenMike Green

35

Justin Peters

That leaves Braden Holtby getting a night off for the first time since the end of November, Steve Oleksy as a healthy scratch, and Dmitry Orlov, John Erskine and Aaron Volpatti still on the IR.
