We've got a chance to do that tomorrow night, and we still like where we are in this series and we still have a lot of confidence as a group."Capitals center Nicklas Backstrom (NHL concussion protocol) will again be a game-time decision; he has been out since being hit by Islanders forward Anders Lee in the first period of Game 1. We're going to take it one game at a time, and we've just got to make sure that we're giving it our all next game and build on it."The Islanders are expected to have forward Cal Clutterbuck available for Game 5; he did not play in the third period Tuesday after a hit from Capitals defenseman Radko Gudas at 15:14 of the second."I talked to him, he seems pretty good to go," Trotz said.
