Coming off their first shootout win of the season that ended a three-game slide, the Washington Capitals are up in Manhattan to try and keep the momentum going against the New York Rangers, who are working their way back up and trying to sneak into the playoff picture.

Here is everything to know before puck drop at 7:30 p.m. at Madison Square Garden.

The Capitals will stick with what's worked, and the only change will come in net as Charlie Lindgren gets the start.

Here are the combinations

                                Alex Ovechkin-Dylan Strome-Aliaksei Protas

                     Connor McMichael-Pierre-Luc Dubois-Tom Wilson

                              Andrew Mangiapane-Lars Eller-Taylor Raddysh

                              Brandon Duhaime-Nic Dowd-Ethen Frank

                                              Rasmus Sandin-John Carlson

                                                Martin Fehervary-Matt Roy

                                      Jakob Chychrun-Trevor van Riemsdyk

                                                         Charlie Lindgren

                                                         Logan Thompson

- Pierre-Luc Dubois has points in two of his last three outings and just set a new single-season career-high in assists as he continues his impressive season.

- Tom Wilson and Connor McMichael each have three goals and five points in his last five games.

- Keep an eye on Alex Ovechkin, who is 11 goals away from breaking Wayne Gretzky's all-time goals record. From this day forward, with each goal scored, he will donate to cancer research, with the amount matching his career goal total.

- Also watch out for Aliaksei Protas, who continues to make significant strides and break new career highs.

- This is the final day before the trade deadline, so all eyes will be on that third line to prove its worth.
