Anaheim Ducks at Washington Capitals Picks & Betting Tips


Washington are backed to carry on an impressive start in a hard encounter against the Anaheim Ducks and I expect Alex Ovechin to have a huge say in it.

Both teams are 1-0-1 in December, but Washington’s home record is too impressive to ignore with them only losing 1 game in normal time at the Capital One Arena.

Washington Capitals was on a 3-game win streak before the two losses in a row against the Blackhawks and the Panthers respectively.

  • Anaheim Ducks are 4-4-2 away from home this season
  • Alex Ovechin has 5 goals in the last 5 games
  • Ovechin also leads the Capitals in points with 39 in 25 games.
  • Anaheim Ducks are 3rd in the Pacific Division
  • Washington Capitals are 1st in the Metropolitan Division

Head To Head


  • Anaheim Ducks lead the series this season 1-0 after beating the Capitals 3-2 after O/T on November 17th.
  • These two teams have played each other 40 times in the NHL regular season with Anaheim leading by one win at 20 wins to the Capital’s 19. They competed in one draw in that time as well.

Anaheim Ducks Form 


Anaheim have shown they are not comfortable away from home with only getting 4 wins out of their 13 wins away from the Honda Center.

Anaheim have also shown in the past 3 games that they know how to score but are struggling not to leak goals.

In their last 3 games, they have scored 14 but conceded 13 goals in the same games.

In the last 5 games, Trevor Zegras has 7 assists and seems to be one of the form players in the Duck’s Offense.

The Ducks have a 27.4% Powerplay Conversion rate which is the 3rd highest in the league.

LW Rickard Rakell, C Trevor Zegras and RW Troy Terry have a combined points of 54 between them with Troy Terry leading the charts with 25 points in 24 games played.

John Gibson has a goal against average of 2.68 and a save percentage of .915 and 1 shutout this season.

Washington Capitals Form


Washington Capitals looked to have hit a bump in the road after losing 2 on the bounce for only the second time this season but bounced back against the Blue Jackets winning 3-1 in normal time and scoring in every period.

Alex Ovechin scored his 750th NHL career goal and I don’t see him stopping now. He leads the team in goals and points this season at the age of 36 showing he doesn’t want to stop any time soon.

The Capitals are far from a one-man team as well with Tom Wilson getting 5 assists in the last 5 games and is 3rd in the points tally for the Capitals.

Washington are also impressive in defense as well with a goals against average per game is 2.44, which is the 4th best record in the league.

We also can’t forget the home record that the Capitals have. They have won 8 games at home this season and have only lost 1 in normal time this season. 

Washington are 2nd in the entire league standings and can go top with a win against the Ducks with the Panthers still to play.

Ilya Samsonov has a goals against average is 2.39 and a save percentage of .917. He also has 3 shutouts this season.

Verdict

It would be a bit silly to back against the Capitals as they have been unstoppable in the past few years but the Ducks will push them to the limit.

That is why we are backing the Washington Capitals to win and for the game to have under 5.5 goals.

This game will be won and lost in the middle of the rink and the defense will be crucial in this game.
