Tonight's lineup: Caps at Thrashers (Updated)

Semyon Varlamov will start in goal tonight against the Ilya Kovalchuk-less Thrashers at Philips Arena. Ondrej Pavelec will get the nod in Atlanta's net.

Varlamov will be looking to improve to 5-0-0 (as well as raise his .884 save percentage), while the Caps will be seeking to win six in a row for the first time since the middle of last season.

The rest of the lineup should look like this:

Forwards
Ovechkin-Backstrom-Semin
Laich-Morrison-Knuble
Fleischmann-Aucoin-Clark
Sloan-Steckel-Bradley
Scratches: Laing (H1N1), Fehr (ribs)

Defense
Morrisonn-Green
Poti-Jurcina
Schultz-Pothier
Scratches: Erskine (bruised hand)

Goalies
Varlamov
Theodore

Update:Nik Antropov (groin) is on the ice for warmups. So it looks like he's a go for ATL.

Check back for more after the game.
