The Washington Capitals surged to the top of the Metropolitan Division behind some stellar play on the road and showed no signs of slowing down in their first home game in two weeks. After demolishing upstart Buffalo on Friday night, the Capitals will enter Sunday's matchup against the visiting Calgary Flames owning the NHL's best record and an eight-game point streak.

Captain Ryan Getzlaf is scheduled to become the first player to log 1,000 games for the franchise as the Anaheim Ducks host the Chicago Blackhawks on Sunday night seeking their fourth win in five contests. Getzlaf, who has spent his entire career with the organization, is second in points (933) behind Hall of Famer Teemu Selanne (988) and first in assists (665) for the Ducks, who will also celebrate the 2,000th game in team history Sunday.
