The Capitals and Flyers already played twice this year, in a home and home in late October. Washington won both of those games, with scores of 4-1 and 6-3. Despite that offensive outburst Ovechkin scored just one between the two games, with an empty netter at the end of the second game.

Instead, center Connor McMichael led the way for Washington in those two games. He had two assists in the first game, and two goals in the second.

Philadelphia comes into this matchup trying to snap a four game losing streak. The Flyers nearly ended that losing streak in their most recent game on Tuesday when they lost 3-2 in overtime on the road to the Utah Hockey Club. Goalie Samuel Ersson was busy for Philadelphia in the loss, making 39 saves for Philly.
