The Washington Capitals have to play their best game of the season if they want to stay alive. We’ve broke down everything so far and we’ve got one more for you with everything you need to know and (if you want to possibly cry) how to watch the game.

There will be some changes to the lineup based on what we’ve heard from morning skate today at MedStar Capitals Iceplex. Daniel Sprong will be in the lineup. Here is what the rest of the lines will look like via Samantha Pell of The Washington Post:

Ilya Samsonov was the first goalie off the ice meaning he will most likely get the start in goal tonight.
