The Washington Capitals are taking on the San Jose Sharks. The big news out of the morning skate was that Connor McMichael would sit in favor of Daniel Sprong. (And boy, the reaction in our comment section was strong.)
Ilya Samsonov will get the start in net as Vitek Vanecek sits for the first time in four games. The Capitals are wearing their navy blue alternates. Also, it’s Police Night at Capital One Arena.
