The Washington Capitals have lost three of their last four games against some pretty underwhelming opponents. They will look to turn it around in Nashville, a place they are notoriously not great at, to try and get head coach Peter Laviolette win number 700.
Heading into tonight’s game, the Capitals’ first line of Alex Ovechkin, Evgeny Kuznetsov, and Tom Wilson have been put back together. Ilya Samsonov will start in goal and be opposite Juuse Saros.
Tonight’s game is on NBC Sports Washington.
