The Washington Capitals will try to keep their slim playoff hopes alive when they visit the Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday night.
With four games remaining in the regular season, Washington (39-30-9, 87 points) trails three teams in the race for third place in the Metropolitan Division and four teams for the second and final wild card in the Eastern Conference.
