And we’re back! The Caps return to action after their holiday break with a Metro division throwdown in Manhattan – the first of two games in New York, with the Islanders up next on Friday.

First, some admin stuff:

  • Who: Capitals @ Rangers
  • Where: Madison Square Garden
  • When: 7:00 p.m.
  • How to watch: Monumental
  • How to listen: 106.7, Capitals Radio 24/7

After three days off, the Caps got a quick skate in this morning to shake out the holiday rust and then will face the Blueshirts with roughly the same lineup as last Saturday’s game against the Bolts:

Ovechkin – Strome – Wilson
Protas – McMichael – Mantha
Lapierre – Kuznetsov – Miroshnichenko
Malenstyn – Dowd – Aube-Kubel

Fehervary – Carlson
Sandin – van Riemsdyk
Edmundson – Jensen

Kuemper
Lindgren
