Down 2-0 in their opening-round series to the Rangers, the scene now shifts to the friendly (we hope) confines of Washington, DC, where the Caps will host their New York neighbors in Game 3.
First, some admin stuff:
- Who: Capitals vs. Rangers
- Where: Capital One Arena
- When: 7:00 p.m.
- How to Watch: Monumental, ESPN
- How to Listen: 106.7, Capitals Radio 24/7
Both Sandin and Jensen skated with the team this morning in regular jerseys…so we’re sticking to the positivity and hoping that at least one, if not both, will be in tonight (and if one of them sits, expect Dylan McIlrath to slide in their place). Also sounds like Ivan Miroshnichenko could make his playoff debut, so here’s how the lines/pairs could shake out:
Ovechkin – Strome – Wilson
Protas – McMichael – Oshie
Pacioretty – Lapierre – Milano
Malenstyn – Dowd – Miroshnichenko
Fehervary – Carlson
Sandin – Jensen
Alexeyev – van Riemsdyk
Lindgren
Kuemper
Time to get things back on track. Let’s. Go. Babes.
