Per Katie Carrera, here are tonight’s lines and defensive pairings, with Braden Holtby (allegedly) getting the nod in net:
Marcus Johansson – Nicklas Backstrom – Alex Ovechkin
Eric Fehr – Martin Erat – Troy Brouwer
Jason Chimera – Jay Beagle – Joel Ward
Aaron Volpatti – Casey Wellman – Tom Wilson
That leaves Alexander Urbom as a healthy scratch, Brooks Laich, Michael Latta and Jack Hillen out with injury, and Michal Neuvirth or Philipp Grubauer serving as the evening’s backup goaltender.
