The Utah Hockey Club will be making their first visit to Washington as a franchise to take on the Capitals. It is a story of two different seasons between these two teams. The Capitals are in the middle of a Presidents Trophy race, while the Hockey Club are sitting in fourth place in a very top-heavy Central Division. The Capitals were one of the four teams who did not play on Saturday, so they will be well-rested and have an advantage coming into this game. They come into this game playing some very good hockey as usual, they are 7-1-2 in their last 10 games and they are an impressive 17-4-5 on home ice. They played in Utah once already this season and beat them in convincing fashion by a score of 6-2. They are the second highest scoring team in the NHL, averaging 3.56 goals per game, and going up against a Utah team that averaging about three goals against per game, and is on a back-to-back, I like their chances to fill the net today.
Utah Hockey Club averages only 2.78 goals per game, I simply do not think this will be enough to keep up with that Capitals that have four solid lines who can score. With the extra rest and home ice advantage on their side, I like the capitals in this game. I will be taking them on the puck line.
