Capitals vs. Maple Leafs live stream, Game 4: TV schedule, online and more
The Washington Capitals find themselves down 2-1 to the Toronto Maple Leafs. Here’s how you can watch the pivotal Game 4 on Wednesday.
Everyone picked the Washington Capitals to win the 2017 Stanley Cup. However, they currently find themselves in a pickle, down 2-1 to the underdog Toronto Maple Leafs. After consecutive overtime losses, the Caps have their backs against the wall. This has been an incredibly fun series, with all three games so far going to overtime.
After a 4-3 loss to the Maple Leafs, the Caps face a must win scenario in Game 4. If they can pull off a win, they’ll head back to the Verizon Center with the series tied and regain home ice advantage. Alex Ovechkin, Nicklas Backstrom and Evgeny Kuznetsov have been outstanding for the Caps, but the other guys must start producing. Their top two lines are scoring, but their bottom two lines have combined for just one goal. Braden Holtby hasn’t been as sharp as he usually is.
On the other side of the ice, thanks to Tyler Bozak’s game winning goal in Game 3, the Maple Leafs have the Caps on their heels. Their speed and skill have been too much for Washington to handle. William Nylander has been especially dominant and was arguably the best player on both teams in Game 3.
