The Washington Capitals will roll with the same guys on the first three lines but there’s a change to the fourth line. Nic Dowd is back in the lineup to center the line. Chandler Stephenson moves from the center position to the right wing. That makes the odd man out Travis Boyd, who will serve as a healthy scratch.
There is a small change on the defense. No changes for the first two pairs but a change in the third pairing. Christian Djoos is back in the lineup while Brooks Orpik will be scratched.
