The Washington Capitals face elimination tonight. Time to step up and prove why the Washington Capitals are better.

The Washington Capitals face the Florida Panthers tonight in a true MUST WIN. If the Capitals lose tonight their season is over. Time to prove to the Panthers and the NHL at large why the Capitals are better.

We’ve got to shake this one off. I think we’re still showing ourselves how we have to play and creating chances, creating offense, keeping their offense in check. We keep getting away from it,” Oshie said bluntly. “We’ve got to reset here. Obviously you don’t want to be down 3-2, especially when we felt like we had a chance to go up 3-1 in the last game. You just got to regroup.”

Those goals last night on Sammy were tough,” Laviolette said. “We left him in tough situations. And on those particular instances where the puck ends up in the net, I think there’s things we could’ve done better. I don’t necessarily sit there and say it was goaltending last night that let us down. We shot ourselves in the foot. So again, that’s what we’ll look to clean up.”
