The Washington Capitals had a tough week last week—losses to the Flames, Blues, and Lightning put them on a season-long three-game losing streak. The Ottawa Senators were recently riding a five-game losing streak, which they snapped with a 5-3 comeback win over San Jose on Saturday. Can the Capitals put them back in the loss column? Coach Carbery certainly hopes so.
First, some admin stuff:

The Capitals’ lines returned to normal on Saturday when Tom Wilson was back in the lineup. Time will tell if Coach Carbery will do some tinkering to try and help his team out of the three-game skid, but here’s how they lined up this weekend:
Ovechkin – Strome – Protas
McMichael – Dubois – Wilson
Mangiapane – Eller – Frank
Duhaime – Dowd – Raddysh
Sandin – Carlson
Fehervary – Roy
Chychrun – van Riemsdyk
