Here's everything to know as the Capitals take off for Buffalo.

After having off Easter Sunday, the Washington Capitals got back to work with a Monday practice, and got positive news on the injury front as Rasmus Sandin took the ice.
Head coach Spencer Carbery confirmed to reporters that Sandin will travel to Buffalo, and his status for Tuesday's game against the Buffalo Sabres will be determined based on how he's feeling.
T.J. Oshie, meanwhile, missed practice and took a maintenance day, but he is expected to be good to go for Tuesday against the Sabres, per Carbery.
The lines stayed the same at practice, per NHL.com's Tom Gulitti, with Tom Wilson filling in for T.J. Oshie on the top line and Rasmus Sandin in his usual spot alongside Nick Jensen on the second pairing. Matthew Phillips, Nicolas Aube-Kubel and Vincent Iorio were the extras.
Here are the combinations:
Alex Ovechkin-Connor McMichael-T.J. Oshie
Aliaksei Protas-Dylan Strome-Ivan Miroshnichenko
Max Pacioretty-Hendrix Lapierre-Sonny Milano
Beck Malenstyn-Nic Dowd-Mike Sgarbossa
Martin Fehervary-John Carlson
Rasmus Sandin-Nick Jensen
Alex Alexeyev-Trevor van Riemsdyk
Charlie Lindgren
Darcy Kuemper
Washington currently holds the third-place spot in the Metropolitan Division after securing a point on Saturday against the Boston Bruins. Monday's practice gives the team an opportunity to reset and get a full skate in before the schedule intensifies down the stretch.
With things still tight and the standings able to change at the drop of a hat, Carbery said the Capitals are staying focused and maintaining the same mindset.
"Nothing's changing with our approach," Carbery said of the team's ongoing playoff push.
