The Washington Capitals are back at Capital One Arena and will take on the Carolina Hurricanes on Pride Night. The Caps will look to break a six-game losing streak at home against the Metropolitan Division’s best team.
The Capitals will get a major boost in their lineup as top-six forward Anthony Mantha will return and play for the first time since early November.
Vitek Vanecek will start.
Tonight’s game is on ESPN Plus though you can listen to John Walton do the call on local radio.
It’s official.

Alex Ovechkin makes it 3-0.
The PPG was the 763rd of his career. You guys, the home losing streak might actually end tonight.
