NHL (1 Picks)
1) 7:00PM EST: (4 Units) WSH Capitals ML -110.
The Capitals score at the second-highest rate and defend at the 5th best. They also have the 3rd best penalty kill and sit 11th in powerplay. They are one of the best teams in the league and are expected to have G Logan Thompson in net who is 19-2-3 with a 2.23 GAA and .921 SV%. It will be difficult for the Senators to score against the Capitals as they sit 21st in goals scored per game and while their bright spot has been their ability to capitalize with the man advantage it will be difficult to do tonight. Defensively they are good, however, star D Thomas Chabot will be out which could lead to favorable openings for the Capitals' offense. Expect the Senators' young G Leevi Merilainen to struggle against his toughest test yet and for the Capitals' defense to perform well against the Senators.
