"📸: RMNB Tonight's a measuring-stick game. One that could define the Washington Capitals' season, especially after they have lost 6 of their last 7 games. Tonight, they face the Carolina Hurricanes, arguably one of the league's best teams and the Caps' second-biggest rival, in Raleigh. The last time the Caps saw the Hurricanes, the Canes had mollywhopped them in the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Then, Eric Tulsky added insult to injury by stealing their mans during free agency."
"Carolina has won four in a row coming into tonight's game and are 5-1-0 at home. The Capitals will need another sterling performance from early-season Vezina Trophy candidate Logan Thompson. The team will also need to get something from their middle six, which has struggled all season long. Declan Chisholm will jump into the lineup for Trevor van Riemsdyk. Puck drop for tonight's game is shortly after 7:00 pm. Joe Beninati and Craig Laughlin have the call on Monumental Sports Network."
Tonight's game is a measuring-stick matchup for the Washington Capitals after six losses in their last seven games. The Capitals travel to Raleigh to face the Carolina Hurricanes, a top-tier team and a major rival that defeated Washington in the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs and later poached players in free agency. Carolina arrives on a four-game winning streak and a 5-1-0 home record. Washington will rely on goaltender Logan Thompson and needs production from a struggling middle-six. Declan Chisholm replaces Trevor van Riemsdyk in the lineup. Puck drop is shortly after 7:00 pm with Joe Beninati and Craig Laughlin calling the game on Monumental Sports Network.
