The Edmonton Oilers and Washington Capitals meet Monday in NHL action at the Capital One Arena. The Edmonton Oilers look for a win after winning 6 of their last 9 games. The Washington Capitals look to snap a 4-game losing streak.

Connor McDavid leads Edmonton with 12 goals, Leon Draisaitl has 16 assists and Evander Kane has 48 shots on goal. Defensively, the Edmonton Oilers are allowing 3.5 goals per game and are killing 72.6 percent of their opponent’s power plays. Jack Campbell has allowed 30 goals on 238 shots faced, and Stuart Skinner has given up 10 goals on 177 shots.

The Oilers are 5-2 in their last 7 road games and 5-2 in their last 7 overall. The Capitals are 1-7 in their last 8 vs. a team with a winning record and 0-4 in their last 4 overall. The over is 3-1-1 in Oilers last 5 overall. The under is 6-0 in Capitals last 6 overall. The Oilers are 1-4 in the last 5 meetings in Washington and 4-1 in the last 5 meetings. The home team is 19-7 in the last 26 meetings.

The Edmonton Oilers are playing the better hockey at both ends, and the Washington Capitals are watching things unravel a bit. However, the Capitals still have the talent to turn things around, and they’re still playing with effort defensively. You don’t often get the Caps in the underdog role at home. I’m not ready to give up on the Capitals just yet. Give me the plus money.
