Capitals wrap up 2024 preseason against Bruins

The Washington Capitals preseason concludes on Saturday night from Capital One Arena against the Boston Bruins. If you can't make it to the game you can catch it locally on Monumental Sports Network, nationally on NHL Network and on the radio at Team 980 and online at Caps Radio 24/7.

Without further ado, here's how the Caps will line up:

Forwards: Andrew Cristall, Nic Dowd, Pierre-Luc Dubois, Brandon Duhaime, Hendrix Lapierre, Andrew Mangiapane, Connor McMichael, Alex Ovechkin, Aliaksei Protas, Taylor Raddysh, Dylan Strome, Tom Wilson

Defensemen: John Carlson, Jakob Chychrun, Martin Fehervary, Matt Roy, Rasmus Sandin, Trevor van Riemsdyk

Goaltenders: Charlie Lindgren, Logan Thompson

This will be the sixth and final preseason game plus a rematch from September 24 where the Bruins thumped the Caps 4-2. But this game will have a different feel with a mostly varsity laden lineup.

You'll see Alex Ovechkin suit up and he scored the last time he was on Capital One Arena ice about a week ago against the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Here were the lines from Friday's practice where Spencer Carbery noted Charlie Lindgren would get the nod the whole game. Lines come via Tom Gulitti of NHL.com:

On the first power play was John Carlson, Alex Ovechkin, Tom Wilson, Dylan Strome and Pierre-Luc Dubois. On the second power play unit was Rasmus Sandin, Jakob Chychrun, Hendrix Lapierre, Andrew Mangiapane, and Connor McMichael.

Pierre-Luc Dubois is the big offseason acquisition and he scored his first goal as a Capital and added an assist in Washington's 3-2 preseason win over the Columbus Blue Jackets on September 30 that was a buzzer beater style.

Once again puck drop is at 5 p.m. from Capital One Arena on Monumental Sports Network, NHL Network and on the radio at Team 980 and Caps Radio 24/7.
