| Penguins welcome Capitals looking to preserve playoff position |
| When the Washington Capitals face the host Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday, there most likely will be a little extra charge in the air. There usually is when the longtime rivals meet. Pittsburgh(35-27-10, 80 points) is clinging to the second and final wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference. Washington (34-31-8, 76 points) sits out of the postseason picture, not only four points back of the Penguins but also two spots back. |

| The Noon Number: Johnny Be Necessary |
| 3 - Number of power-play goals scored this season by Capitals' blueliners - all of which have come off the stick of John Carlson, who picked up his third power-play goal of the year in the team's lopsided win over the Blackhawks last night. |

| 3 Takeaways From Capitals' 6-1 Win Over Blackhawks |
| The Washington Capitals came into Thursday night's game looking poised to get two points after a disappointing overtime loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets on Tuesday (March 21). With another “easy win” lined up for them in the Chicago Blackhawks, the Capitals were able to deliver a 6-1 win as their playoff hopes hang on by a thread. This win gives the Capitals their 34th win of the season and improves their record to 34-31-8 (76 points). It was very clear the team was missing their number one defenseman, and John Carlson's play Thursday night showed he hadn't missed a beat since being injured with a fractured skull and ear laceration 36 games ago. |

| Caps Roll Over Hawks, 6-1 |
| The returns were immediate and positive, as the Caps rolled to a 6-1 victory over the visiting Chicago Blackhawks. Carlson, Alex Ovechkin and Nicklas Backstrom each had a goal and an assist to pace the attack, with both Carlson and Backstrom scoring on the power play. Washington's penalty-killing outfit was on its game as well, snuffing out all five Chicago power plays on the evening. |
