With Alex Ovechkin, the Washington Capitals are one of the most dynamic offensive teams in the NHL. Without their injured star right wing, the Capitals will try to transition into being more defensive-minded as they visit the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday night. Ovechkin - the reigning two-time Hart and Richard Trophy winner - is listed as week-to-week with an upper-body injury suffered in a 5-4 overtime loss to Columbus on Sunday. He was off to a torrid start with an NHL-best 14 goals and ranked second in the league with 23 points as the Capitals (8-2-4) totaled 52 goals in racing to an early lead in the Southeast Division.

Coach Bruce Boudreau now wants his team to tighten defensively as opposed to filling the void left by Ovechkin’s departure offensively, which carries more urgency after Washington gave up nine goals in overtime defeats to the New York Islanders and Blue Jackets the last two games. Washington has won three straight on the road and gotten at least one point in its last nine overall (6-0-3). While the Capitals are missing their best forward, the Devils (8-4-0) may get one of their top ones on the ice for the first time this season.

Elias, who had three goals and four assists in four games versus Washington last season, was afforded the luxury of rehabilitating his injury gradually thanks to New Jersey’s impressive road start. The Devils became the fifth team in NHL history to open 7-0 away from home after a 2-1 shootout victory over Tampa Bay on Saturday.

While the Florida Panthers are showing signs that their dismal start could be turning around, things just keep getting worse for the Carolina Hurricanes. Carolina’s most recent victory came against the Panthers on Oct. 9, but the visiting Hurricanes will be without star center Eric Staal as they try to repeat the feat and avoid a 10th straight loss Wednesday. The Hurricanes’ worst start in franchise history has been shocking after the team reached the Eastern Conference finals last season and brought back most of its key players. Carolina (2-8-3) has had major problems all over the ice during its 0-6-3 skid and shown little progress, having been outscored 16-4 in its last three games.

The Panthers are certainly feeling more confident after winning on the road on consecutive nights over the weekend, including an impressive 4-0 victory over St. Louis on Saturday. They had lost eight of their previous nine.

Perhaps most promising was that Tomas Vokoun stopped 34 shots for his first shutout of the season on the heels of a sluggish start. Playing behind a defense that had allowed an average of 36.6 shots through his first nine appearances, Vokoun had a 3.65 goals-against average entering Saturday’s game. The Hurricanes chased Vokoun last month after scoring five goals on 26 shots, but the veteran is 4-1-2 with a 2.54 GAA when facing Carolina at home since he joined the Panthers. Hurricanes goalie Cam Ward has won four of his six starts at Florida.
