Edmonton is now fighting a hard battle with Vegas to get into the playoffs. The defensive line has been letting the team down a lot lately. Edmonton has a good implementation of chances, but the statistics of goals scored and conceded are still bad - 185 against 183.
Washington Capitals play in the Metropolitan Division, where the fight for the playoffs is always considered the hardest. So far, the club is in the top 4, but still the situation is not the best.
Both teams are in immediate shape right now. Maybe Washington is the favorite today, but the last away matches were not too successful. But Edmonton and Washington need points now, so we expect to see a bright game, especially since Edmonton is one of the most productive teams in the conference.
Prediction: at least 6 goals to be scored. We recommend the "Over 5.5" bet, odds 1.5
