Edmonton Oilers vs. Washington Capitals Key Betting Prediction
The Oilers have played better and are 6-2 in their last eight games against teams from the Metropolitan division and are 5-2 in their last seven road games. They are likely to win this game too due to better team strength.
The Capitals have not played well and are 1-7 in their last eightr games against a team with a winning record. They have struggled to score this season and that is likely to keep them at a disadvantage in this game, too.
