CVP II: Cap vs Predator Requiem

Tuesday, Dec 20th:  Nashville Predators @ Washington Capitals (7:00pm)

On Tuesday night the Nashville Predators will come to Verizon Center to face the Washington Capitals for their 2nd and final matchup of the season. The first time these 2 teams met in Nashville and the Predators defeated the Caps 3-1 behind some sweet goaltending from Pekka Rinne who saved 39 out of 40 shots.

The Predators are red hot and have won 5 straight games and 7 out of 10 while the Caps have only won 4 out of their last 10.  The Caps have only scored 1 goal in their past three games and have not been getting enough shots on goal.  Dale Hunter has moved MarJo up to the 1st line in place of Ovi to try to get some offense going...

Mike Green was skating and Jay Beagle was cleared for hitting, but both are still not ready to come back to action yet.  Cody Eakin has been sent back to Hershey...
