Status report
Glass did not practice Friday because of maintenance but is expected to play. … Evangelista practiced but the forward will not travel, and will miss his third straight game. … Sourdif did not practice Friday because of an illness, and Capitals coach Spencer Carbery was uncertain if the forward will play. … Roy practiced and the defenseman is questionable after missing the past five games. … Dubois did not practice; the forward will miss his fourth game in a row.
