The Washington Capitals’ four-game West Coast road trip finally ends tonight and not a moment too soon. The Capitals announced before the game that TJ Oshie and Conor Sheary are both out with injury.
Seattle Kraken legend Vitek Vanecek will start against his former team in what many (silly) people are calling his revenge game. Former Capitals goaltender Philipp Grubauer, who has struggled mightily this season, will be in net for the Kraken.
Tonight’s game is on NBC Sports Washington. Chat along with us in the comments.
