After two straight losses (to Dallas and St. Louis), the Capitals won twice. First, they defeated Buffalo in overtime on the road, and then New Jersey (4-3) at home. Thanks to these victories, Washington increased their lead over inferior Columbus by two more points (from 13 to 15). Their home team still isn't feeling much pressure in the Metropolitan Division standings.
Carolina form
Carolina's play has been painful to watch of late. Two wins and three losses is the result the NHL's top team showed in the last five games. That's not kind of a result you would respect from this team, but there's no point in them having to worry about their performance. They currently sit 1st with 93 points. In the last match, the Hurricanes defeated St. Louis with a score of 7-2.
Expert Betting Tips
It is not easy to determine the favorite here. Washington and Carolina haven't exactly been playing their best hockey lately, so it could be a fatal mistake to favor either of them. This game is predicted to be quite high-scoring. Both squads are showing very good offensive play on the season as a whole. In 65 games, the Hurricanes have scored 216 pucks, while the Capitals have 224, but they have played two more games. All in all, we suggest betting on the standard total for great odds.
Prediction: Total Over (5.5).
