    Caps at Flyers Pregame: Hockey Day in America

    NHL 2015 - Feb 19 - BUF vs PHI - Right Wing Jakub Voracek (#93) of the Philadelphia Flyers scores against Goalie Michal Neuvirth (#34) of the Buffalo Sabres

    Oh. Wow. You can score on Neuvirth and the Sabres. You must be very proud.

    Let’s make this quick because I gotta shovel my sidewalk.

    The Caps won yesterday for the fourth time in a row, their best run of the season. No time to celebrate though, because evil Bettman scheduled them for back-to-back nooners. I’d say “don’t worry, it’s just the Flyers” except just because they’re a bad team doesn’t mean they can’t play dirty stuff and get a little lucky too.

    Tune in at 12:30 on NBC proper.

    Team Record Possession PDO Power Play Penalty Kill
    Washington Capitals 33-17-10 51.8% 100.3 24.3% 81.4%
    Philadelphia Flyers 25-23-11 49.6% 100.1 23.0% 75.9%

    Thanks to everyone I met in Chinatown yesterday and everyone here at RMNB, especially Emily Wright, for covering for me while I was gone.

    Projected Lineup

    Early game, so we won’t really know the lineup until warmups. Here’s what yesterday looked like; I’m not certain it’ll be this way today. I’m kinda thinking it’s a Justin Peters kinda game. Updated: Nope.

    Ovechkin – Backstrom – Burakovsky
    Johansson– Kuznetsov – Brouwer
    Laich – Fehr – Ward
    Beagle – Latta – Wilson

    Orpik – Carlson
    Alzner – Niskanen
    Hillen Schilling – Green

    Holtby

    Storylines

    • The Caps own their first four-game winning streak of the season. Can they make it five?
    • Read the PuckBuddys pregame with our friends from Broad Street Hockey.
    • Hershey was nuts last night.
    • Eric Fehr was amazing in many ways versus the Islanders.
    • Some jerk hole pulled the fire alarm at the Caps’ hotel at 1:30 AM.
    • That’s it. It’s only been like 20 hours since the last game. What were you expecting?

    Daytona. He’s starting near the back, but Junior’s 88 is a fast car. Bet on Junebug.
