It’s another year of Stanley Cup Playoff hockey, but the Washington Capitals have their backs against the wall once again.
Caps’ head coach Barry Trotz has shuffled his lines at practice in the hopes of finding a spark that can get them back into their series against the Pittsburgh Penguins, and it has put captain Alex Ovechkin on the third line.
Ovechkin and T.J. Oshie talked with the media, letting them know no one on the Caps has been pulling their weight, and that needs to change. Ovi is simply hoping this change works.
It’s do or die tonight at the Verizon Center for Washington, with the Penguins looking to put Ovi and the Caps away in five games.
Best of luck in Game 5, Ovi!
