Today's 8-Bit Capitals Lines: More of the Same for an Elimination Game

No need to change what's working, so with the Caps back in Nassau for the final time in this series - and the final time ever - they'll likely send the same troops out to hopefully finish the job. With that in mind, here are the probable lines and defensive pairings, with Braden Holtby in net:

8-19-42

Alex Ovechkin - Nicklas Backstrom - Joel Ward

90-92-25

Marcus Johansson - Evgeny Kuznetsov - Jason Chimera

65-83-20

Andre Burakovsky - Jay Beagle - Troy Brouwer

21-46-43

Brooks Laich - Michael LattaTom Wilson

44-74

Brooks Orpik - John Carlson

27-2

Karl Alzner - Matt Niskanen

6-52

Tim Gleason - Mike Green

70
Braden Holtby

That leaves Philipp Grubauer backing up Holtby, Curtis Glencross out as a healthy scratch, and Eric FehrDmitry Orlov and John Erskine remaining out with injuries.
