Just a reminder, NBCSports Washington is now Monumental Sports. Same bat channel, same bat time.

There are teams that have already played three games and starting a fourth tonight, Caps are starting their 2nd. The schedule will make up for this discrepancy in march thanks to the nhl schedule makers.

also.. Lindgren left the morning skate early with an apparent injury, no word yet on who the backup will be or what this will do to the lineup.




4pm update-
Lindgren now listed as day to day, Stephenson will be the backup. Edmundson was moved to LTIR to make cap space.

I don't like 77 on the top line.............

I don't like any of em' on the "top line", tbh... We'll see what happens but if they still can't create tonight, hopefully Carbery breaks up the "molasses" line.

[Mickstix]

Hoping for someone to score a Caps goal tonight! 

[Mickstix]

Pfft.. 12-0 shots, 1-0 Flames. 5 minutes in.

Hot damn, 8 minutes in we get a SHOT ON GOAL!!

Was it the molasses line? I wasn't even paying attention.

[Mickstix]

Looks like we've been killing a 10 minute penalty. 

[capsfanpdx]

Not very good hockey from the Caps so far.........

Was it the molasses line? I wasn't even paying attention.

So far, it’s the whole team

It doesn’t look like the onesie is going to do the trick tonight, probably should just go topless
