Gabby and the Caps Head West


The Washington Capitals head west to visit the Anaheim Ducks to begin a four game road trip and a stretch of seven games in eleven days, beginning tomorrow night. The Capitals(10-4-3) enter the contest atop the Southeast Division just one point ahead of the Carolina Hurricanes(10-7-2).

The Capitals could be without three of their top players. Leading scorer and point getter Alexander Semin is listed as doubtful(back/shoulder strain), Sergei Federov is questionable(sprained ankle) and Shaone Morrisonn is a game-time decision(strained groin muscle), thanks to Caps beat writer Tarik El Bashir for the injury info.

After tomorrow nights game in Anaheim,the Caps will take to the ice on Thursday visiting the L.A. Kings,before traveling to San Jose to face the Sharks. The Caps will finish up their 4-game trek on Monday night in Minnesota before returning home to face the Atlanta Thrashers on Thanksgiving Eve at Verizon Center.
