Caps win 7-3

[alta]

As of 2:00, Capsdotcom says the game is at 8pm, but the NHL says it’s at 9pm.

[justwincaps]

Maybe it's 8PM Central ....9PM Eastern

[alta]

That’d be great if Washington was in the central time zone.

[Mickstix]

ESPN says it's 9pm. Since they're the one televising it, they're probably correct. 

[alta]

Everyone says it’s at 9:00 except the official game preview at the team website. This organization treats the team website as an afterthought to all other social media. It’s one of the worst team websites in the league.

WTF happened to Eller?  Too much Carlsberg celebrating his 900th game?
