The Capitals host the Senators for a game you can watch on a regular TV

The Washington Capitals have invited the Ottawa Senators to town for what better than two easy runs for the home team.

The Capitals will miss Dmitry Orlov (one more game on suspension), John Carlson (COVID), Nick Jensen (injury) and TJ Oshie (injury), but Conor Sheary (COVID) returns from his COVID away game.

Vitek Vanecek will make another start, hoping to claim the spot as the Capitals’ top goaltender.

Tonight’s game is on NBC Sports Washington, which you can watch using a TV.
