Tough to say what the lines will look like, although WaPo’s Bailey Johnson reported that Hendrix Lapierre will join the lineup and Matthew Phillips will come out. Whether that means Lapierre plays wing or not remains to be seen – so here’s a look at the potential lines and defensive pairings for tonight’s contest, with Darcy Kuemper drawing back in goal:
Ovechkin – Kuznetsov – Wilson
Milano – Strome – Lapierre
Protas – McMichael – Mantha
Malenstyn – Dowd – Aube-Kubel
Fehervary – Carlson
Sandin – Jensen
Edmundson – van Riemsdyk
Kuemper
Lindgren
