Enjoying more success than any team in the league, the Washington Capitals certainly can’t blame their players for wanting to be on the ice as much as possible. Coach Bruce Boudreau will likely continue to juggle his lineup as the league-leading Capitals try to continue their dominance at home Friday night against Tampa Bay Lightning. With 99 points and a 14-point lead in the Eastern Conference, Washington has enough leeway to rest some of its regulars while trying to break in new players. That plan, though, isn’t necessarily sitting well with those who are missing time.
On Monday night, Tomas Fleischmann was left off the lineup for the first time all season as the Capitals lost 4-3 in a shootout with Dallas, snapping a franchise-record 13-game home winning streak. Two days later, he scored in overtime as Washington bounced back at home with a 4-3 victory over Carolina. Fleischmann was smiling when he mode those comments, but it highlights the tough position Boudreau is in on a team overloaded with talent. Jason Chimera and Eric Fehr, who had not been rested since Jan. 2, took their turns sitting out versus the Hurricanes. Boudreau is trying to work in new players Joe Corvo, Scott Walker and Eric Belanger. On March 3, Corvo and Walker were acquired from Carolina and Belanger was picked up in a deal with Minnesota. Belanger assisted on Fleischmann game winner.
