Live updates: Washington Capitals vs Los Angeles Kings at Crypto.com Arena

   

The Washington Capitals dismissed the Anaheim Ducks 7-4 in the first game of their road trip. Now they’re in Los Angeles to vanquish the Kings in La La Land. And gosh is it late (10:30 pm).

Former Capital Darcy Kuemper will start against the man who took his full-time starting job last year, Charlie Lindgren. Tonight’s game also marks the return of Pierre-Luc Dubois to where he played last season. Lars Eller is playing in his 1,100th career NHL game.

Also keep an eye on that Alex Ovechkin fella, who is is currently at 886 career goals — 9 away from breaking Wayne Gretzky’s NHL goals record.

The Capitals are 11-2-1 against the Pacific Division this season.

Puck drop for the Caps-Kings game is set for 10:30 pm on Monumental Sports Network. Joe Beninati and Alan May have the call. It’s an #RMNBAfterDark night so please get weird in the comments (not too weird) and share your sleepy pet photos.
