Capitals vs. Blues Game Thread

One last home game remains before the Caps hit the road for four straight away from DC, with the Blues in town for the first in a home-and-home set.

First, some admin stuff:

  • Who: Capitals vs. Blues
  • Where: Capital One Arena
  • When: 7:00 p.m.
  • How to watch: Monumental
  • How to listen: 106.7, Capitals Radio 24/7

The captain is officially back, but as always seems to be the case, one person returns and two more sit out. Tonight, that means Joel Edmundson (upper body) and Beck Malenstyn (personal) out of the lineup, leaving the team’s lines and pairs to look like this:

Pacioretty – Strome – Oshie
Ovechkin – Kuznetsov – Wilson
Protas – McMichael – Mantha
Lapierre – Dowd – Aube-Kubel

Fehervary – Carlson
Alexeyev – Jensen
van Riemsdyk – Bear

Lindgren
Kuemper
