RALEIGH, N.C. — After taking their first loss of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, Todd Reirden and the Washington Capitals seek solutions with some new personnel.
Outclassed 5-0 by the Carolina Hurricanes in Game 3 on Monday, the Capitals made a larger collection of starting lineup changes between games than they have in months, hoping to spark a turnaround in Thursday’s Game 4 at PNC Arena.
Reirden’s lines at Wednesday afternoon’s practice subbed Jonas Siegenthaler in for Christian Djoos on the third defensive pairing, as Djoos struggled to get anything going in the first three games of the postseason.
