The Washington Capitals are a woken beast right now, and boy are they hot. The Caps are riding a six game win streak. During this streak the Caps have been scoring over three goals in each game. On top of all the winning, they have been doing it all without star forward Evgeny Kuznetzov. That ends tonight as he returns to the lineup for Washington.
The Devils come into tonight’s game losers of three straight games.
Tonights lineup for the Caps is as follows:
Ovechkin – Backstrom – Wilson
Vrana – Kuznetsov – Connolly
Burakovsky – Eller – Smith-Pelly
Stephenson – Dowd – Jaskin
Braden Holtby between the pipes tonight.
