Washington Capitals vs Ottawa Senators Main Game Info

Washington Capitals vs Ottawa Senators Moneyline Prediction

The Capitals snapped a two-game losing streak with a 4-3 win over the Florida Panthers in their most recent outing. Although their recent results have been inconsistent, their overall numbers remain encouraging. Washington has won six of its last 10 games (6-4-0), but it has conceded 14 goals while scoring 10 over its last three contests, suggesting some defensive regression. Its road record has also been underwhelming, at 2-2-0.

The Senators have been similarly inconsistent, posting a 5-4-1 record over their last 10 games. However, they’ve won two in a row and three of their last four, including a 4-2 win over the Utah Mammoth last time out. Ottawa has allowed two goals or fewer in those three wins. The Sens can also draw confidence from their home record, having won six of their last eight game on home ice since the beginning of October (6-2-0).

Neither team has been particularly dominant lately, and both have similar 10-game records. However, the Senators’ strong home form and Linus Ullmark’s return between the pipes give them an edge that could be enough to beat a Washington team that has been leaking goals.

Washington Capitals vs Ottawa Senators Projected Starting Goalies

Linus Ullmark’s return gives the Senators a significant advantage in the goaltending matchup. He was one of the league’s best netminders before sustaining a lower-body injury. The matchup would be closer if the Sens opted to start Samuel Ersson (3.14 GAA, .890 save percentage).

Washington Capitals vs Ottawa Senators Player Prop

Tim Stutzle recorded an assist and three shots in Saturday’s 4-2 win over Utah. He’s registered three or more shots on goal in three of his last four games and is averaging 2.7 shots on goal per game over his last 10 appearances. That bodes well for his chances of clearing this line.

Stutzle’s career-high 21:54 in ice time per game and his first-line role at even strength and on the power play also work in his favour.

Washington Capitals vs Ottawa Senators Total Goals Prediction

The Capitals have the NHL’s eighth-best offence, scoring 3.53 goals per game, while the Senators are a few spots behind in 16th place (3.11). Ottawa has a clear advantage at the other end of the ice, with the league’s 11th-best defence (3.00) compared with Washington’s 22nd-ranked unit (3.40).

The Senators’ games average 6.11 total goals, and four of their last five have produced six or more. The Capitals’ games average 6.93, and each of their last 11 has gone over 5.5 goals. Given these recent trends, expect an open game with at least six goals.

Washington Capitals vs Ottawa Senators Team News and Injury Report

Washington Capitals Team News and Injury Report

The Capitals are close to full strength, as none of their injured players, including Patrick Thomas (upper body), Rasmus Sandin (knee), and Vincent Desharnais (abdomen), would be expected to play prominent roles.

Two players to watch in Washington are Dylan Strome and Jordan Kyrou, who lead the team in scoring with 14 points apiece. Strome has three goals and 11 assists, while Kyrou has five goals and nine assists.

The Capitals are playing on the road for the first time after a three-game homestand, during which they went 1-2-0. Their last game was on Saturday, so they’ve had two full days of rest.

Ottawa Senators Team News and Injury Report

The Senators are short on depth at left wing because of injuries to Andre Burakovsky (lower body), William Eklund (ankle), and Warren Foegele (knee).

Burakovsky and Eklund would be candidates for top-six roles. Their absences have resulted in Nick Cousins and Michael Amadio taking on greater responsibilities than expected. Ridly Greig returns and slots in as the third-line centre.

The Senators will play their second consecutive home game following a recent five-game road trip. Like the Capitals, they have two days of rest.
