Caps at Red Wings pregame: Slump ends now

Headline photo: Patrick McDermott

After a dominant December, the Washington Capitals have lost three games in a row. That stinks, but it’s not all doom and gloom. This afternoon the Caps will meet the Detroit Red Wings, third from last in the eastern conference. If the Caps can right the ship, it’ll happen today.

Puck drop is at 5 PM. The game’s on NBCSWA, but enterprising folks can stream the action using cutting-edge, space-age technology. Recap services will be furnished by our own brilliant Julia. Let’s get a W.

Projected Lines

The Caps did some line switching last game and traveled yesterday. I don’t know what the lines will be, aside from Holtby in net, so in lieu of that I now offer you this photo of a baby Tamarin and its mom. (NOTE from AJ: Reirden said players will no longer be rotated for the sake of rotation. He said if they deserve to be  in the lineup they will stay in the lineup.  Todays lineup remains as last game except Holtby in net.)



Storylines
* Peter finally got around to writing about the Caps defense, but really it’s about Evgeny Kuznetsov.
* The Todd Squad is going to the ASG.
* Me and Chris both liked the Caps’ effort against the Stars. Bad bounces sink ships.
* Alex^2 got bronze at WJC.
* Namita has built an ELF team-name generator.

4 Caps:
I look for a big effort from the Caps today.  They need a win.  I want to see some production from the top two lines today.  They have not even been generating quality scoring chances let alone scoring. 

Mickstix:
Hopefully we beat them like step children today!! (Ō_ƆŎ) :wackysmile:

BarfingMonkey:
Let's GO CAPS!

DC_1908:
you’re god damn right Lady and I here in THE D!!!


We’re with the Caps Road crew, but I’m a long haired redneck rock n roll Som of Detroit, so I got
