Capital Ups and Downs: Playoff Push

How did each Washington Capital fare through this past week’s four games? Let’s take a look...

March started really well for Nicklas Backstrom, but he slowed down a bit last week. He has two assists and only four shots on goal through four games. Coach Todd Rierden switched up the lines in the loss against the Wild so Backstrom was centering Ovechkin and Wilson, so maybe the flip will help turn his offense back up.
