Other notes:

*Braden Holtby will be back in tonight after taking the Dallas game off.

*The Caps will look to end their two game losing streak. It will be vital that tha Caps have a quick start tonight after falling behind the last two.

*The teams in the Metro keep winning so tonight the Caps need the two points bad.

*Eric Fehr returned in the Dallas game. I believe he is a very important player for the Caps because of his versatility.

*The Caps are still in a good position going into the All-Star break, a quick start  should turn into a win and two points going into the break. 

*Gametime 7 p.m on CSN
