Carolina Hurricanes coach Paul Maurice thinks his team may need to win outto earn a playoff berth. That likely wont be easy with a trip to the nationscapital forthcoming.

The Hurricanes look to avoid a season sweep by the SoutheastDivision-leading Washington Capitals, who could have back in thelineup when they meet Tuesday night.

Carolina (35-30-10) is five points behind Buffalo for the final EasternConference playoff spot with seven games remaining. The Hurricanes lost someground Saturday, as their three-game winning streak ended with a 4-2 home lossto Tampa Bay and the Sabres defeated New Jersey.

Now were going to need help, Maurice said. Were going to have to comepretty close to running the table from here on out.

That seems like a tall order with five games remaining against teamscurrently in the top eight in their respective conferences. Making mattersworse, this stretch begins against a Washington club that has outscored Carolina14-7 in winning the first five meetings of 2010-11.

has led the Capitals with four goals in those games, whileOvechkin has two goals and six assists.

Ovechkin has missed the last three contests with an undisclosed injury butreturned to practice Monday and said he was ready to go for this game. CoachBruce Boudreau was more cautious, saying Ovechkin skated well and may be back bythe end of the week.

Washington is returning home after a 2-0 win over Montreal on Saturday thatconcluded a 4-2-0 road trip. This will be the Capitals first game at theVerizon Center, where theyve won all five games this month, since March 13.

Unlike the Hurricanes, Washington knows its headed to the postseason.

The Capitals have clinched a playoff berth and are second in the East with98 points, two behind Philadelphia. They lead the division by seven points withsix games to play.

Despite battling for first place in the East, Washington remains unsettledin net, using its three capable goaltenders in the last three games.

who has made a team-high 41 starts, sat out the last twocontests with an illness. returned to the ice Friday aftermissing 14 games with an undisclosed injury and stopped 21 shots in a 2-0 lossto Ottawa.

Rookie got the start Saturday and made 18 saves for his secondshutout and sixth consecutive win.

Weve got three No. 1 goaltenders, Boudreau said.

All three have had success against the Hurricanes this season.Varlamov has posted a 1.95 goals-against average in his three wins, Neuvirthmade 29 saves in a 3-0 victory Oct. 27 and Holtby stopped 40 shots in a 2-1 winMarch 11, the most recent meeting.

The Capitals three goalies have benefited all season from the teamsnewfound commitment to defense. Washington has scored 113 fewer goals than lastseasons league-high total of 318, but its yielded the fifth fewest in theleague with 182. The Caps gave up 233 goals in 2009-10.

I think for most of them now its fun to win by not allowing the other teamto score, whereas last year it was fun to win because we scored six goals,Boudreau said.

Carolinas hasnt been as dominant in the season series, recordinga 2.25 GAA in his four starts.
