Golden Knights visit the Washington Capitals in a Stanley Cup rematch
Game 3- 10/10 Vegas (1-2) at Washington (1-0-1)
TV: 8pm NBC Sports Network
Radio: Caps Radio 24/7
Last game: Washington lost to Pittsburgh 7-6 in overtime
Goal scorers: Oshie (2), Carlson, Orpik, Ovechkin, Vrana
Goalie: Braden Holtby- 34 saves
The last time these two teams met, the Washington Capitals got a late goal by the tiger Lars Eller to help seal the deal for the Stanley Cup. Not much has changed for the Washington Capitals lineup wise, so we should expect a lot of the same for the Caps against the Knights tonight in DC.
Capitals notes: Expect that both Jaskin and and defenseman Micheal Kempny both make their regular season debut’s tonight for the Washington Capitals.
The Stanley Cup rematch happens TONIGHT.

Washington Capitals lines for tonight in DC against the Knights
Ovechkin-Kuznetsov-Connolly
Vrana-Backstrom-Oshie
Stephenson-Eller-Burakovsky
Jaskin-Dowd-DSP
Kempny-Carlson
Orlov-Niskanen
Djoos-Orpik
Braden Holtby will start between the pipes for the Washington Capitals.
Vegas notes: The Washington Capitals will see a familiar face in net tonight as Marc-Andre Fluery will start for the Vegas Golden Knights. It does look like however that the Knights may be missing a key piece in their lineup. Paul Stastny and Jon Marchessault both did not skate yesterday at practice. It sounds like Marchessault is fine, but it is quite possible that Paul Stastny doesn’t play tonight, which helps the Caps defensively.
