"The Capitals kick off their four-game road swing with a trip to visit their longtime rivals in Pittsburgh - and they'll need to get their money's worth of the Ovi-Sid chaos now, as these two teams won't clash again until the final week of the season. The Pens have been a surprising team to start the year, but have dropped their last two and may be looking to right the ship."
"First, some admin stuff: It's likely we'll see the same lineup as last night (maybe with a tweak or two if Carbery wants a fresh pair of legs), with Charlie Lindgren taking over between the pipes: Ovechkin - Strome - BeauvillierProtas - McMichael - WilsonMilano - Lapierre - LeonardDuhaime - Dowd - Sourdif Fehervary - CarlsonChychrun - van RiemsdykSandin - Roy"
The Capitals begin a four-game road swing with a visit to longtime rivals in Pittsburgh and must capitalize on Ovechkin–Sidney Crosby intensity since the teams meet next only in the season's final week. Pittsburgh started the year surprisingly well but has lost its last two games and may be aiming to rebound. The Capitals are expected to ice essentially the same lineup as the previous night, possibly with minor tweaks for freshness. Charlie Lindgren is slated to start in goal. The projected forward and defensive pairings are listed for game deployment.
