The Washington Capitals find themselves in a precarious position, trailing the Carolina Hurricanes 3-1 in their playoff series. With hopes of extending their season, the team must secure a victory in Game 5. Coach Carbery has been evasive regarding lineup confirmations, adding to the intrigue as fans await the official choice for the game. In the crucial goaltending matchup, the Capitals face a formidable opponent in Frederik Andersen, with their own netminder Logan Thompson tasked with overcoming the odds to push the series further.
The Capitals have some work to do. Down 3-1 in their series against the Hurricanes, their only choices are to win or start the summer far earlier than they hoped.
It's a steep hill to climb, for sure...but it starts with one. Get one win, and go from there.
First, some admin stuff for Game 5: Series: 1-3 Goalie Matchup: Logan Thompson (5-4, .918, 2.45 GAA) vs. Frederik Andersen (6-2, .935, 1.41 GAA).
As has become his usual, cagey fashion, Coach Carbery would neither confirm nor deny that the lines from yesterday's practice will be what we see tonight.
