Money Line: -135.00 Dallas (Away)
Result: Win
Money Line: -135.00 Dallas (Away)
Result: Win
When you have to count on Tom Wilson to do most of your goal-scoring your offense is in trouble. That's what's going on with the Capitals, who rank second-to-last in goals scored at 2.2 per game. Wilson, more goon/enforcer than scorer, has produced four of Washington's last six goals.
I don't like this situational spot for Washington either.
This is the Capitals' first home since Nov. 24. They just concluded a five-game road trip that finished with a 4-1 loss to Las Vegas this past Saturday and a 6-0 defeat to Arizona this past Monday. Washington's concentration could be off having been gone from home for so long.
The spot also sets up well for Dallas. The Stars are off a poorly-played 5-4 road loss to Florida. The Stars had lost to Tampa Bay in their previous game. You have to go all the way back to last February to find the last time the Stars lost three straight games.
