The Washington Capitals are coming off a 3-1 win over the New York Rangers, and tonight they host the Seattle Kraken as they look to go 3 straight and improve to 4-1. The Capitals have found success early in the season, as their new additions have made a big impact. Alex Tuch is an easy example: in his 4 games with the Capitals, he has 3 goals.
The projected lines for the Capitals tonight are:
Alex Tuch -- Pierre-Luc Dubois -- Tom Wilson
Alex Ovechkin -- Dylan Strome -- Anthony Beauvillier
Alaiksei Protas -- Ilya Protas -- Jordan Kyrou
Boone Jenner -- Justin Sourdif -- Ryan Leonard
Jakob Chychrun -- Timothy Liljegren
Martin Fehervary -- Vincent Desharnais
Cole Hutson -- Dylan McIlrath
Logan Thompson
Charlie Lindgren
The projected lines for the Kraken are:
Jared McCann -- Matty Beniers -- Mackie Samoskevich
Bobby McMann -- Chandler Stephenson -- Jordan Eberle
Kaapo Kakko -- Berkly Catton -- Shane Wright
Ben Meyers -- Frederick Gaudreau -- Ryan Winterton
Vince Dunn -- Adam Larsson
Ryker Evans -- Brandon Montour
Josh Mahura -- Ville Ottavainen
Joey Daccord
Philipp Grubauer
The Capitals will be without Rasmus Sandin (knee) and Matt Roy (lower body), and they have healthy scratches for Ivan Miroshnichenko and Ethen Frank for tonight's matchup. The Kraken are without Jacob Melanson (upper body) and Ryan Lindgren (upper body), and they have scratched Curtis Douglas and Cale Fleury for tonight's matchup.
The Capitals will likely start Logan Thompson in tonight's matchup after coming off a 21-save win against the New York Rangers. The Seattle Kraken's starting goaltender is likely Joey Daccord, and he is coming off a 16-save loss to the Vegas Golden Knights, so he will be looking to bounce back.
The Capitals host the Seattle Kraken tonight at 5:00 PM EST and the Capitals look to make it 3 straight wins.
