Washington has been showing ambiguous hockey lately. In the last five-match segment, the Capitals did not meet with powerful teams, but they managed to beat somehow Columbus (1-0) and the Islanders (4-3, with OT). In the other three, the Capitals failed. First, they lost to Nashville (2:3), then twice to Philadelphia (3:5 and 1:3). As for Washington's position in the Capital Division table, it is fourth with 54 points.
Minnesota Wild
Minnesota also approaches the game after two wins and three losses, but there is one thing – the Wild had more serious opponents. At first, Kaprizov and his company suffered three defeats in a row – 5:6 (OT) from Buffalo, 0:3 from St. Louis, and 3:4 (shootout 1:2) from the Rangers, and then twice turned out to be stronger – 3:1 over the Islanders and 2:1 over Arizona. It is worth noting that Minnesota closes the playoff zone of the Central Division, having an advantage over the lower Colorado by five points.
