Tonight's 8-Bit Capitals Lines: Fehr Out, But Who's In?

With Eric Fehr set to miss at least the next two games, either Andre Burakovsky or Michael Latta will draw into the lineup to replace him... but the other could also get a sweater. Ah, playoff intrigue. What we do know is that Braden Holtby will start in net and that this is how the Caps' lines shook out on Sunday:

8-19-42

Alex Ovechkin - Nicklas Backstrom - Joel Ward

92-90-20

Marcus Johansson - Evgeny Kuznetsov - Troy Brouwer

25-16-83

Jason Chimera - Eric Fehr - Jay Beagle

22-21-43

Curtis Glencross - Brooks Laich - Tom Wilson

44-74

Brooks Orpik - John Carlson

27-2

Karl Alzner - Matt Niskanen

6-52

Tim Gleason - Mike Green

70
Braden Holtby

That leaves Justin Peters backing up Holtby, Burakovsky and/or Latta (and/or someone else) out as healthy scratches, and Fehr, Dmitry Orlov and John Erskine remaining out with injuries.
