The Washington Capitals open up the 2023 portion of the schedule with a home game tonight against the Buffalo Sabres. It is the first of three meetings this season and the Caps look to stay hot against a young and improving Sabres team.

T.J. Oshie was at morning skate and told the media he’s good to go for tonight’s game. He suffered an upper body injury that sidelined him for six games. He said he’s been pain free since Christmas.

Nicklas Backstrom and Tom Wilson continued to practice. Backstrom was out of COVID protocols and both were in regular contact jerseys.

The Caps are coming off a win over the Montreal Canadiens 9-2 in a game that saw Alex Ovechkin record his 30th career hat trick.

He became the sixth player in NHL history to score 30 or more hat tricks, joining Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemieux, Mike Bossy, Brett Hull, and Phil Esposito.

Can the Caps continue their hot momentum into 2023? Here’s how to find out:
