    This just screams hockey to me.

    Tonight the Caps begin a three-game trip through Canada with a four-game win streak still active. The Toronto Maple Leafs are still not very good, but anything can happen on HNIC. It’s Holtby vs Bernier, so that’ll be fun.

    Puck drops at 7 PM on CSN Plus.

    Team Record Possession PDO Power Play Penalty Kill
    Washington Capitals 16-5-1 53.3% 100.7 25.0% 84.5%
    Toronto Maple Leafs 7-10-5 48.3% 99.9 18.8% 81.7%

    Projected Lineup

    No morning skate, so I’m just gonna make some stuff up. No idea who will be in net.

    Ovechkin – Backstrom – Oshie
    Johansson – Kuznetsov – Williams
    Chimera – Beagle – Burakovsky
    Laich – Latta – Wilson

    Schmidt – Carlson
    Alzner – Niskanen
    Orlov – Chorney

    Holtby

    Storylines

    • Peter (hey, that’s me!) takes stock of the Capitals after 20 (and change) games and delivers a blistering hot take.
    • Brian Boyle’s Braden-busting goal was not offside, but the Caps blew it anyway.
    • The power play jumped 3.5 percentage points thanks to last night’s goals. Alex Ovechkin’s touch may have returned.
    • Six down, 24 to go for TJ Oshie. Please.
    • Brooks Orpik is skating …somewhere.
    • Prepare to be angry at Marc Joannette and Rob Martell, your refs tonight.
    • Brandon Dubinsky has been suspended one game for this hit on Sidney Crosby.
    • Claude Julien does not want Brad Marchand as a son:
