This is an 8* BLOOD-BATH on the Washington Capitals.

REASONING: As primarily a "situationally based" handicapping service, these are exactly the types of games/contests that we keep our eyes out for. Columbus enters on a 16 game win streak, one which has been filled with more than a few come from behind improbable performances. The Blue Jackets are No. 2 in scoring and No. 2 on the defensive end. Washington ranks in the middle of the pack in scoring, but is No. 3 on defense. The Capitals though play with revenge here after falling 3-2 to Columbus back on November 20th. Note that Washington is already 12-5 (+4.7 units) this season in revenging a loss against an opponent. We think the wheels finally come off the bus for the Blue Jackets and the hungry home side delivers in the end. Play on the CAPITALS.
