Fifth straight home segment for Caps?
Washington Capitals come to match with two straight losses in the luggage – 6-3 away against Nashville Predators and 6-2 away against Colorado Avalanche last. 12 goals captured on two played matches are obviously under all criticism, however, Washington does not have its strength in the away game. The strength lies, however, in the home game. Despite the start of the season, Caps has won five out of eight played home matches, including the last four home matches. Among the winnings we find a strong 4-1 win against the ruling champions Pittsburgh Penguins. At homemais you are very hard-played, in eight played home games, you have released 17 goals – only Pittsburgh has released less (15), but on seven played matches. Watch out for Ovechkin-Kuznetsov, who together stood for 40 points forward this season.
Minnesota is strong
Minnesota Wild comes to the match with four straight wins in the luggage – very impressive. Last managed to turn a 3-0 subdivision into a 6-4 win against Nashville Predators, a victory they definitely strengthen the morale and self-confidence in the squad. In the offensive, Jared Spurgeon stood for a really good bet, the 27-year-old was noted for a goal and two assist. At the same time, Jason Zucker was noted for his eighth goal in five played matches. On the move, Minnesota has mixed and given results – four wins and five losses have been collected on nine played away games. One thing that has to be noted is the team’s defensive – one released four boxes against Predators last before, before they were kept in three straight (!) Matches. Victory against Montreal Canada’s and back-to-back wins against Philadelphia Flyers. A really impressive company, I have to say. Now, you are stunned against an aggressively strong Washington in the Capital One Arena, believing the guests get it hard against the Russian radar couple Ovechkin-Kuznetsov.
