The Washington Capitals will shoot for their third straight victory against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Thursday at Nationwide Arena. The Capitals have been dominant on both ends of the rink these past few games. After surviving high-scoring games against the Islanders 5-4 OT and the Devils 6-5, Washington demonstrated their defensive might to stifle the Toronto Maple Leafs 3-1 and Montreal Canadiens 4-2. The Blue Jackets have dropped four of their last five games, sending them below .500 at 12-13-3. In their latest loss to the Philadelphia Flyers 3-5, Colombus’ defense was a mess from the very start, allowing their opponent to build a commanding 3-0 advantage that proved to be too big of a deficit for them to overcome.
