The Capitals aren’t scoring much lately. Alex Ovechkin, the mustache guy above, hasn’t scored since [checks watch] the late 80s. Actually 11/11. Tonight the Caps will be guests of the totally bad hot mess Colorado Avalanche.
Tonight should… SHOULD… herald the return of Bailamos. 9 PM on CSN. Do it.
| Team | Record | Possession | PDO | Power Play | Penalty Kill |
| Washington Capitals | 8-7-3 | 52.19% | 98.69 | 24.6% | 82.0% |
| Colorado Avalanche | 6-8-5 | 44.13% | 99.65 | 13.4% | 88.2% |
Projected Lineup
Swap Brown for Latta and those are your lines. That’s cause for consternation.
Ovechkin – Backstrom – Wilson
Johansson – Burakovsky – Brouwer
Chimera – Beagle – Ward
Latta– Kuznetsov – Fehr
Orpik – Carlson
Alzner – Niskanen
Schmidt – Green
Holtby

What You’re Missing on TV Tonight
On a very special episode of Grey’s Anatomy (8 PM, ABC), someone named Maggie and someone named Meredith join forces on a case, but their approach clashes with someone named Derek’s. Elsewhere, one of the patients in the veterans project is pushed too far, and someone named Callie blames herself; and a routine procedure leads to a heartbreaking diagnosis.
