A Washington Capitals team sans Tom Wilson will visit the Philadelphia Flyers this evening. Tom will miss the next couple weeks of hockey to suspension, so the Caps will have to make do without his services.
The puck will be dropped at 7 PM and Chris will be on your recap.

Don’t look now, your Washington Capitals have won four in a row and have at least a point in their last six games. To extend that win streak to five they will need to take down the Boston Bruins on the same rink they did just two days ago.

It’s happening. The Capitals are streaking. Fresh off their third win in a row, the Caps have traveled to Boston to face off against the Bruins. Big headline of the day is that this Zdeno Chara‘s first game in Boston since he left the Bruins after 14 seasons. But, Chara has made it very clear that his focus is not on his big return to Boston. It’s on getting another win with the Capitals and seeing his family.
We’re back to the usual 7 PM puck drop and Peter Hassett will hit ya with a recap after the game.

The Capitals are still in New Jersey to play in the second game of a back-to-back weekend series against the Devils. The Capitals are currently 5-1-1 in their past seven games and are leading the MassMutual NHL® East Division with 26 points. Keep it up, boys.
Evgeny Kuznetsov will not be playing again today (upper body injury) and Ilya Samsonov will start in goal.

The Capitals have hit the road for the next five games. First up, a couple of back-to-back weekend games against the New Jersey Devils. This is only the second meeting between the two teams out of their series of eight.
Alex Oveckin and Carl Hagelin are confirmed to be in the line-up for today’s game after they took a maintenance day yesterday. I am also in need of a maintenance day, I totally get it. Sometimes you just need a day to make sure everything is all good.

A long homestand for the Washington Capitals is coming to an end this evening when they host the Pittsburgh Penguins. Yes, again. This is their sixth match-up of the season already and the Penguins are 4-1-0 against the Caps this season.
Something else happening again? Coach Laviolette is messing with the lines. Top line Conor Sheary? Evgeny Kuznetsov back up top? What the hell, sure, why not.

The Capitals are playing host once again to the Pittsburgh Penguins for their fifth matchup of the season. The Caps made some line moves, including the promotion of Lars Eller to the first line. Coach Laviolette also took a moment to yell at the team a bunch. I get it, I yell at them too.
The good guys will be the ones in the pretty Reverse Retro jerseys, you can’t miss em.

Something not so chill happened yesterday morning. The Caps got stomped by the New York Rangers, but today is a new day. This afternoon, after a quick time change, the Capitals are hosting the New Jersey Devils. Don’t want to scare anyone, but the Capitals are currently 0-3-2 in matinee games this season. I think that today would be an excellent day to get that first win.
Puck drops at 2:00 PM and, once again, Chris will have your recap.

The Capitals are at home hosting the New York Rangers and it’s an early one. Rise and shine, everyone. Grab a cup of coffee, a mimosa, water, or whatever drink you need and settle on in. Let’s get another W.
“I know things happen quick,” Peter Laviolette said. “You’ve got to prepare the night before. You’ve got to wake up ready to compete. Not many people go to work and have to think about getting into a fight before they have their lunch, so it’s just a different mindset.”
Puck drops at 12:30 PM and the fabulous Mr. Christopher will have your recap.

The Capitals are at home and hosting the Buffalo Sabres on this wintery evening. After the win on Tuesday night, the Capitals are hoping they can keep the good vibes going and extend their streak. Personally, I would appreciate that as well. Winning is way more fun than losing.
Puck drops at 7 PM and Peter will be your recapper. How lucky are you?
