Goaltender Michal Neuvirth will get his sixth consecutive start at Verizon Center tonight as the Capitals host the Bruins at 7:30 p.m., and it looks like defenseman Tom Poti will be back in the lineup after missing the past three contests.
Among the other injured players, Coach Bruce Boudreau said Matt Bradley (lower-body injury) is out for tonight's game and Mike Green (upper-body injury) is a game-time decision. Green went back out on the ice for extra work with the assistant coaches and remained on the ice long after the other players, so it's probably safe to guess he won't be in the lineup tonight.
Boyd Gordon is also a game-time decision after being given a maintenance day and is "hurting," Boudreau said, adding that it's not related to his previous back problems.
