things that [Ovechkin] is battling through it and playing hard, and that is what we need from him." --Capitals coach Dale HunterThere were some defined matchups in the first two games. Boston's line centered by Patrice Bergeron and top defensemen Zdeno Chara and Dennis Seidenberg were on the ice a lot against Washington's trio that features captain Alex Ovechkin,Duncan Keith Authentic Jersey, while the lines featuring David Krejci and Nicklas Backstrom saw a lot of each other as well.As the home coach, Dale Hunter will have the last change and could manipulate those matchups more should he choose. Hunter conceded that avoiding a defenseman like Chara is tough to do, because it is so easy for him to hop on the ice after a faceoff, but getting Ovechkin, Brooks Laich and Troy Brouwer away from Bergeron, who could win the Selke Trophy in a couple months, might help that trio find some more offense.It is also possible Hunter would leave that matchup alone, and bank on Backstrom, Alexander Semin and Marcus Johansson being better than the Krejci line and Boston's second defense pairing of Andrew Ference and Johnny Boychuk.BRUINS VS.

"On D, we are pretty much just rotating. They pretty much have two first lines, so you pretty much just get out with whoever you get out against and maybe change coming up the ice. It won't be the most intense matching game where every time you have to play against a certain line. It should be more free-flowing."Added Hunter: "You get the last change, so you get a little more [control]. With Chara,Authentic Tony Esposito Jersey, it is easy to change a D. If you lose the draw, you can still change. It is one of those things that [Ovechkin] is battling through it and playing hard, and that is what we need from him."Alzner and John Carlson saw more time at even strength against the Krejci line, while Mike Green and Roman Hamrlik went up against the Bergeron unit. While Alzner and Carlson have proven to be a quality shutdown pairing in the past, having Green and Hamrlik help stifle Boston's most productive line this season -- and the third most-productive trio together at even strength in the NHL in 2011-12 -- has been a big plus for the Capitals to this point.One of Boston's advantages coming into the series was its third line,Authentic Keith Magnuson Jersey, and Chris Kelly and Benoit Pouliot have both of the Bruins' goals. Both came with Washington's third defensive pairing, Dennis Wideman and Jeff Schultz, on the ice.That is this series in brief to this point -- Washington's top two lines have outscored Boston's 2-0,Corey Crawford Authentic Jersey, but the Br
