The Capitals took the first game of the series at Madison Square Garden, while the Rangers pulled one back on their home ice in Game 2. 

Washington will look to extend its strong run of form at home in the playoffs, as it was victorious in its last three home games against the New York Islanders in the first round. 

One of the keys to Monday's Game 3 will be the play in the first period.
