The most interesting game in the NHL calendar for next Tuesday’s night corresponds to the clash between Winnipeg Jets and Washington Capitals, teams that have been dominating their respective Conferences throughout the season. Surprisingly, they aren’t considered as big contenders for the championship as most of the hockey analysts affirm that there are teams with more competitive players than the Jets and the Capitals.
Nonetheless, these teams must get focused on improving their skills during the last part of the regular season, being more than evident that this game will definitely be a disruptive point on their way for the Presidents’ Cup. In this regard, Winnipeg Jets are currently having issues finding consistency from their players, as only Kyle Connor and Josh Morrissey have almost permanently remark among the rest with their frequent shots on target.
On Washington Capitals’ case, it can be found that they’re the best team in the league with 102 earned points throughout the season, and even though they faced some difficulties due to a deep irregularity, they were able to win their last 4 games in a row. Additionally, it cannot be ignored that their offensive line is the best in the Eastern Conference with 257 scored goals, being also worth noting that Alex Ovechking is just 7 goals away from the all-time scoring record in the NHL.
