Washington's having a cracking regular season. With 105 points, the Capitals are still doing really well in the Eastern Conference. They're nine points ahead of second-place Carolina, so they can afford to slow down a bit. In the last five meetings, the Capitals have lost four times. Including the previous day, Washington lost to Carolina 1-5. But at least Alexander Ovechkin scored, and he's just two pucks away from matching Gretzky's record.
Chicago
Chicago just hasn't been in it in the tournament lately. As the season went on, the Blackhawks tried to get back on track, but they just couldn't gain any momentum. With 52 points, the Hawks are currently 15th in the Western Conference standings, while San Jose has two fewer points. There's not much point in beating Chicago, as it'll just make the first pick from last place more likely. Victories are rare, with the team losing 11 out of 12 previous meetings.
H2H Meetings
The last time Washington and Chicago met was on 18 December 2024, when the Hawks were stronger with a score of 3-2.

Expert Betting Tips
Our main bet here is on Alexander Ovechkin scoring a puck. There are only two goals left before they can set a new record and three before they can set a new one. There's plenty of motivation for him, and now he's got an opponent who doesn't need anything. Chicago is conceding goals left, right and centre, and the Russian has really hit top form recently, scoring in three games in a row! On top of Alex's goal, it's a smart move to bet on a solid win for the Capitals.
