WASHINGTON — Tomas Tatar will make his debut in the Stanley Cup Final when the Golden Knights meet the Washington Capitals in Game 4 Monday at Capital One Arena.
Tatar is expected to take David Perron’s place in the lineup, skating on Cody Eakin’s line. Alex Tuch, who has been playing with Eakin, is moving up to the second line to skate with Erik Haula and James Neal. However, coach Gerard Gallant would not confirm after the morning skate that Perron was out.
“I never said that,” he told reporters at his news conference following the team’s morning skate.
