    Caps at Rangers Pregame: No Mojo

    Happy Saturday, hockey people. In just a few hours, the Capitals will take the ice at Madison Square Garden to play the New York Rangers, who aren’t very good anymore. But that’s no reason to get cocky; the Caps will be without their sterling third line center, Marcus Johansson, who is serving a two-game suspension.

    Puck drops at 1 PM, and coverage is on CSN. I’ll be doing a light recap with heavy hors d’oeuvres.

    Team Record Possession PDO Power Play Penalty Kill
    Washington Capitals 30-7-3 51.7% 102.2 25.4% 84.6%
    New York Rangers 22-14-0 48.2% 102.7 19.3% 80.5%

    Projected Lineup

    No morning skate. I’m gonna make stuff up.

    Ovechkin – Backstrom – Oshie
    Burakovsky – Kuznetsov – Williams
    Chimera – Latta – Wilson
    Laich – Carey  – Galiev

    Alzner – Niskanen
    Orlov – Schmidt
    Ness – Chorney

    Holtby

    Storylines

    No time for real storylines. Just know this:

    • Marcus Johansson is out for a couple, and he probably deserved it. Or at least one.
    • Mike Richards is a Capital.
    • Braden Holtby ventures in the slipstream between the viaducts of the upper echelon.
