TJ Oshie is out of the Capitals’ lineup, but not out of their hearts.
Devante Smith-Pelly, who was recalled after Oshie fractured his collarbone in Game Four, wore TJ Oshie’s number 77 hoodie before the game.

The Capitals posted video of Smith-Pelly’s Oshie tribute during a pregame video.
The hoodie isn’t the first time that Smith-Pelly has repped Oshie with his clothing. DSP also wore a hat from Oshie’s Warroad clothing line while he was with the Hershey Bears.
Devante Smith-Pelly now has a four-game point streak with Hershey, scoring a goal on Wednesday night. He spoke to @kyle_mace after the Bears 5-3 win over Springfield. pic.twitter.com/W6TIEdKloz
