The road trip kicked off with a big win in Edmonton; now the boys head further west to Seattle for their first meeting of the season with the Kraken. They’ll look to extend their winning streak to six against a team boasting plenty of familiar faces from the 2018 Cup squad – but this is probably the coolest part of tonight’s matchup:
Asked Spencer Carbery this morning about tonight’s game featuring women on both coaching staffs: Emily Engel-Natzke on the Caps’ video staff and Jessica Campbell behind the bench for the Kraken. “It’s phenomenal. It’s so impressive, what they’ve accomplished in their careers.”

On this date in 1975: The Caps hosted the Canucks and played a scrappy, close game but ultimately fell 3-2 to extend their losing streak to 6 and their winless streak to 16…woof. [Game Notes]
