A direct confrontation for the NHL Metropolitan Division will take place next Saturday night when Washington Capitals receive New Jersey Devils at the Capital One Arena at 06:00 pm Central Time. These teams are fiercely competing for the top spot of the Eastern Conference, so the main expectation is having a centralized game in which both teams will try to nullify their offensives.
With that in mind, Washington Capitals have been able to remark as the best offensive of the Eastern Conference with 79 goals, a number that must make them feel proud as they have only played 19 games so far this season. However, they are having serious issues with the late game, being worth mentioning that they lost the third period in their last 3 home games in a row.
On New Jersey Devils’ behalf, this squad was able to quickly overturn their disappointing loss against Tampa Bay Lightning (4-0) with such an impressive victory over Carolina Hurricanes (4-2). Then, the big objective for this team will be achieving their second victory in a row against a team from their own division, a scenario that would reaffirm them as big contenders for the championship.
