THE SETUP
Another prime-time national audience will watch along with the 18,387 inside as both these rivals make late pushes for the Stanley Cup playoffs. The Panthers are one point behind the Penguins for the Eastern Conference's final playoff spot, and the Capitals are four points behind. Kinda big. I’ll have this one solo.
