The Capitals were coming off a dominant victory at the Shark Tank last night, and the Kings were hoping to use their day off on Tuesday to their advantage. Los Angeles has been...struggling as of late, and they have also been without defenseman Alec Martinez since November 26 after he had surgery to repair a radial artery after catching a skate blade with his wrist. Could the Caps stay hot in California, or would the Kings come away with the crown? Spoiler alert: John Carlson said “I’ll take that crown, thank you very much” and led Washington to a 3-1 victory.
