OV is a game time decision. He did not practice yesterday after getting his leg tweaked against Carolina. Lindgren is eligible to come off IR today, that decision is also pending.

Kings goalie Pheonix Copley is out for the season with ACL surgery.

Kings have lost four in a row (0-2-2) and eight of their last 12 (4-5-3).

Caps have lost back-to-back games getting outscored 12-5, and six of their last seven (1-4-2).

I guess at some point we'll play a team that isn't "The best in the league" in 2 or 3 categories? :wackysmile:
