The Washington Capitals are taking on the Florida Panthers on Black Friday. Puck drop is shortly after 5 pm, which should not be allowed on both a work and weekday.

Ilya Samsonov will get the start in net tonight, while Conor Sheary, Justin Schultz, and Lars Eller are out. Dennis Cholowski will get a jersey for the second time in his Capitals career and skate on the third pairing with Trevor van Riemsdyk.

The Caps will be playing in their navy blue third jerseys for the second time this season. (They may or may not be bad luck.)

Sergei Bobrovsky was really good in the first period.

Tom Wilson ties it up shorthanded! 1-1.

Wilson accidentally decked Sergei Bobrovsky as he skated by to celebrate.

Hat trick, OVI!
