"The Washington Capitals were originally scheduled to practice at Vancouver's Rogers Arena at 1:45 pm PT on Tuesday. However, those plans had to change due to some travel issues. According to the Washington Post's Bailey Johnson, the Capitals had plane issues and got stuck in Denver last night. The team landed in Vancouver only shortly before they were scheduled to take the ice for their skate."
"The travel woes come after the Capitals fell 5-2 to the Avalanche on Monday night, extending their losing streak to three games. The team will be back on the ice at Rogers Arena on Wednesday morning ahead of playing the Canucks later that night. Vancouver represents the Capitals' best chance to turn things around after a tough couple of weeks, as they are the NHL's last-place team and have lost eight games in a row."
The Capitals experienced plane issues and were stuck in Denver overnight, arriving in Vancouver only shortly before a scheduled practice. The team canceled the Tuesday practice and rescheduled a morning skate at Rogers Arena for Wednesday at 11:30 am. The travel disruption followed a 5-2 loss to the Avalanche that extended the team's losing streak to three games. The Capitals will face the Vancouver Canucks Wednesday night. Vancouver is the NHL's last-place team and has lost eight straight games, while the Capitals previously lost to the Canucks 4-3 on October 19 after rallying from a 4-0 deficit.
