Tonight the Centennial Classic-winning Toronto Maple Leafs travel to Washington to take on the Presidents Trophy-winning Washington Capitals. The Maple Leafs have been on a bit of a hot streak, with five wins in-a-row after Sunday and they will hope to continue that after tonight. For the Capitals, not only will they be playing for their third win in-a-row, but hopefully the chance to pass some serious milestones for two key players. Nick Backstrom needs two more assists to reach a total of 500 in his career. Alex Ovechkin is six points away from career point number 1,000.
7:00pm game time on CSN, kiddos.

First, here’s your reminder that ref cam is best cam. This is Auston’s OT winning goal from this weekend.

Auston Matthews is the Leafs MVP this season, and he might already be among the league’s best centres too. https://t.co/V74TcJU5LL pic.twitter.com/d51QVoewWI
