The Caps are in Boston for regular season game #2 and their first road game of the 2014-2015 season. The Caps will get Mike Green back tonight after he got banged up during the preseason. Barry Trotz was a little quiet on who would be in the lineup, I believe it will be the same expect we might see Michael Latta in for Chris Brown but we won't know for sure till the puck drops.
Lineup:
Ovechkin-Backstrom-Fehr
Johansson-Burakovsky-Brouwer
Chimera-Laich-Ward
O'Brien-Kuznetsov-Brown or Latta
Orpik-Carlson
Alzner-Niskanen
Schmidt-Green
Holtby
Peters
Notes:
*We know Mike Green is making his debut tonight and will play will Nate Schmidt on the third defense pairing. Making Jack Hillen and John Erskine healthy scratches.
*Like I said up top their might be a change at the 4th line right wing as Latta might be in for Brown.
*Braden Holtby will be in net and it looks like the Bruins will counter will Tuukka Rask.
*Barry Trotz said he liked how Evgeny Kuznetsov played with limited ice time on Thursday, said if he keeps it up he might find more ice time as the season continues.
*Tom Wilson will still be a week away from coming back but believe he will end up having to play some games in Hershey before getting back into the Caps lineup.
*Hershey opens their season tonight in Norfolk.
*Gametime at 7 p.m CSN, no Capitals Central on tonight because of College Football
