The Capitals wrap up the March portion of the 2024-25 schedule with a matinee visit from the Sabres, who head to DC fresh off a lopsided loss in Philly yesterday. The Caps will look to get back on track after their own loss in Minnesota and keep their losing streak from stretching to three.
First, some admin stuff:
- Who: Capitals vs. Sabres
- Where: Capital One Arena
- When: 3:00 p.m.
- How to Watch: Monumental (now with 100% more Craig Laughlin!!)
- How to Listen: 106.7, Capitals Radio 24/7
Lines will probably stay the same (or at least start the same) as we’ve seen, and Logan Thompson returns between the pipes:
Ovechkin – Strome – Protas
McMichael – Dubois – Wilson
Mangiapane – Eller – Raddysh
Duhaime – Dowd – Beauvillier
Sandin – Carlson
Fehervary – Roy
Chychrun/Alexeyev – van Riemsdyk
Thompson
Lindgren
On this date in 1975: Two nights after snapping their season-long 17-game losing streak – and winning their first and only game on the road of the season, kicking off an epic celebration – the Caps, sadly, were back to their losing ways. This time they let 3-1 and 5-2 leads slip away, ending in an 8-5 loss to Detroit. [Game Notes]
