Today we have some local action, with the Caps playing the last game of their road trip in Montreal.
↵But the main event in sports today is of course the Elite 8 games getting underway tonight. Here's a look at today's TV schedule:
↵Saturday's Games:
↵NCAA Tournament Games
↵Butler vs. Florida, Elite Eight Matchup, 4:30 on CBS (Gus Johnson, Len Elmore, Reggie Miller): The Butler Bulldogs are coming off a win against the Wisconsin Badgers and will take on the Florida Gators, who are fresh off of beating 'The Jimmer' and the rest of the BYU Cougars. Butler certainly isn't playing like an eight seed right now, and look to show everyone how good they really are by going to back to back final fours. Hopefully this game will be close with under two minutes to go so we can all be treated to more Gus Johnson moments.
↵Connecticut vs. Arizona, Elite Eight Matchup, 7:00 on CBS (Verne Lundquist and Bill Raftery): Arizona is coming off probably one of the most surprising victories in the Sweet Sixteen round, as they trampled Duke in the second half thanks in large part to Derrick Williams. They will be countered by Kemba Walker and the UConn Huskies, who have simply turned it up a notch since the Big East tournament started.
↵NHL:
↵Capitals vs. Montreal Canadiens, 7:30 Comcast Sportsnet: Washington is coming off of a disappointing 2-0 loss in Ottawa will look to finish their road trip on a high note by getting two more points and hopefully gain some ground in the Eastern standings, where they are currently second to the Flyers.
