Capitals vs Avalanche NHL Betting Prediction

With a settled team and great away record, the Capitals will fancy their chances. A strong defensive setup also makes things easy for them, but poor performances in the last few games are likely to affect them negatively.

The Avalanche, on the other hand, have played well at home and come with a winning momentum into the tie. We can expect them to likely make it count in this game and turn over their poor home record against the Capitals with a win.
