You can already see that the Caps are leaning more on their core players while the Pens are spreading out their TOI more evenly. This should favor the Pens later in the game. The Caps' best chance may be the old, boring road game -- try to play team defense and smother everything, and hope for a break or lucky bounce to get a goal somewhere. First goal in this game is probably going to be a lot more important than usual.
