Washington Capitals play host to Ottawa Senators in the NHL game slate today.
The Ottawa Senators are playing the second half of a back-to-back series against the Washington Capitals. Ottawa lost yesterday's game 2-0 to Boston Bruins. Dake Batherson and Josh Norris are injured. Anton Forsberg is slated to be the starting goalie for Ottawa. He's just 2.6 in his last 8 starts.
The Washington Capitals are playing against the Ottawa Senators. The Capitals have been struggling recently, but they beat Montreal 5-2 on Thursday. Ilya Samsonov is expected to start in goal for Washington. He's allowing 2.85 goals per game and has a .905 save percentage.
The Senators and the Capitals are playing a back-to-back series. Washington has won the last 10 games. The odds for a -1.5 puck line are not great, but I'll take it anyway.
Washington is favored to beat Ottawa at 1.5.
