The Columbus Blue Jackets will head to the nation’s capital this Friday for a match between two teams at different ends of the standings. The Capitals have looked fantastic this year and are heavy favorites in this one for good reason as they are better in nearly every area then the Blue Jackets.

Although the Capitals are massive favorites in this one they did lose to the Blue Jackets the last time they played by a score of 3-0.
Columbus Blue Jackets
The Blue Jackets beat the Capitals 5 games ago and that has kicked off a 5 game winning streak for Columbus which has given them a lot more hope of making the payoffs then they had a couple weeks ago. Joonas Korpisalo has been a big part of that 5 game winning streak and now has a solid 2.54 GAA on the season.
Korpisalo was certainly man of the match in Columbus’ last game against the Islanders as he stopped 35 of 37 shots in a hard fought 3-2 win. Given the outstanding offensive options on the other side of the ice he will likely need a repeat of that performance if the Blue Jackets are to get a result in this one.
Washington Capitals
The Capitals are 7-3 in their last 10 and that level of performance consistently throughout the season has given them a healthy lead atop the Metropolitan division. Although the Capitals have been solid all year long they will want to forget about their last game as they were destroyed by the Boston Bruins by a score of 7-3. They do get a great ”get right” spot here, though, as they should be able to exact revenge against the Blue Jackets for their loss a couple weeks ago.
Ovechkin has been awesome yet again this year with 23 goals, and John Carlson always seems to get on the scoreboard with an assist when he scores as he has amassed 35 assists on the season with many of those going to The Great 8.
NHL Betting Trends:
- Blue Jackets are 3-7 in their last 10 road games.
- Blue Jackets are 2-7 in their last 9 games as a road underdog.
- Capitals are 7-0 in their last 7 games playing on 3 or more days rest.
- Capitals are 39-13 in their last 52 Friday games.
- Capitals are 23-8 in their last 31 overall.
Free Columbus Blue Jackets vs. Washington Capitals NHL Prediction:
The Capitals are such a solid team and it is really hard to bet against them at home especially when they are coming off such a humiliating defeat. I see them doing a number on the Blue Jackets here at home and can imagine them running up the score here, so I would suggest going with the Capitals on the puckline here.
