Per Katie Carrera, here are tonight’s forward trios and defensive pairings:
Marcus Johansson – Nicklas Backstrom – Alex Ovechkin
Martin Erat – Brooks Laich – Troy Brouwer
Jason Chimera – Mikhail Grabovski – Joel Ward
Braden Holtby gets the nod in net again, with Alexander Urbom and Jay Beagle on the sidelines as healthy scratches, Jack Hillen continuing to be there as a less-than-healthy one.
