"After a disappointing road trip that saw them get just one win in four tries, the Caps now return home and get their first look at a Devils squad that, despite a myriad of big injuries, has been among the best teams in the league so far this year. They'll add one more injured party to their growing list, however, as Jack Hughes somehow injured himself at a team dinner, had surgery earlier today and is out for up to eight weeks."
"First, some admin stuff: John Carlson is a gametime decision with an injury, so if he sits, expect Trevor van Riemsdyk to draw back in...barring that, however, the lineup will remain the same in front of Logan Thompson: Ovechkin - Strome - BeauvillierProtas - Sourdif - WilsonLapierre - McMichael - LeonardDuhaime - Dowd - Frank Fehervary - CarlsonChychrun - ChisholmSandin - Roy"
The Capitals ended a road trip with just one win in four games and return home to play the Devils. The Devils have performed strongly despite suffering many significant injuries. Jack Hughes injured himself at a team dinner, underwent surgery earlier today, and is expected to miss up to eight weeks. John Carlson is a gametime decision due to an injury; if he does not play, Trevor van Riemsdyk is likely to draw back into the lineup. Otherwise, the lineup in front of goalie Logan Thompson will remain unchanged.
