It’s completely undeniable that the main event on the NHL schedule for next Saturday night corresponds to the clash between Washington Capitals and Winnipeg Jets, teams that currently are the best in their respective Conferences and that will clash at the Capital One Arena at 06:00 pm CST.
In this regard, it must be noted that Washington Capitals appeared to have decelerated during their most recent games, as they were only able to win 1 out of their last 3 games. However, it’s necessary to remark that their last 5 games were played away, so coming back home could motivate them to carry on pushing Alex Ovechkin to become the NHL top scorer in history, who currently is just 19 goals away from achieving it.
On Winnipeg Jets’ case, this Canadian team has an impressive record of 4 victories in a row and they currently remark as the best offensive in the whole league after scoring 190 goals throughout the season. The most important thing around that number is that they’ve been truly consistent during the season, a fact that can be ratified when looking that they scored 4 or more goals during their last 4 games.
