The Caps' recent victory re-energized the team, and despite facing a seemingly weaker opponent, they are alert to the potential for an upset from the Habs.
Historically, the Caps have struggled against the Canadiens, including a notable 49-9 overall deficit in their season series, highlighting their challenges.
With Alex Chychrun injured, Alexeyev steps into the lineup for his first game of the season, adding a new dynamic to the Caps' defensive setup.
Celebrating the 50th anniversary of their first encounter, Caps fans hope for a far better result than the team's previous meeting against the Habs in 1974.
