With just one week left in the NHL regular season, the Capitals are sitting comfortably in the Metro standings. With a regulation win over the Ottawa Senators tonight, Washington could guarantee a playoff appearance.
(I am constitutionally and stylistically opposed to the typical clinching idiom. I literally hate it literally.)
Game is at 7 PM on CSN. I’ve got a bunch of family in town, so Chris Gordon will be recapping the game in my stead.
Team | Record | Possession | PDO | Power Play | Penalty Kill |
Washington Capitals | 43-25-10 | 51.8% | 100.1 | 25.3% | 81.9% |
Ottawa Senators | 39-26-12 | 50.4% | 101.2 | 16.0% | 82.1% |
One minor chance to the bottom six. From Prewitt:
Ovechkin — Kuznetsov — Ward
Johansson — Backstrom — Brouwer
Glencross — Fehr — Chimera
Laich — Latta — Wilson
Orpik – Carlson
Alzner – Niskanen
Green – Gleason
Holtby
John Legend serenades a dog wedding. I assure you that Georgia found this very emotional.
In addition to tying the franchise consecutive starts mark tonight, Holtby can become the 2nd Caps goalie ever to win 40 games.
