Capitals vs. Blue Jackets Best Bets
Tuesday, January 31, 2023 - 7:00PM ET
PICK: Capitals Team Total Over 3.5 (-127)
The Washington Capitals do battle with the Columbus Blue Jackets as both teams round out the 1st half of the season tonight at Nationwide Arena.
Despite being injury riddled, the Capitals hold the first Wildcard spot in the Eastern Conference, with 58 points. The Caps are coming off a 5-1 loss in Toronto on Sunday and have lost 3 of their last 4 games.
They will want to rectify that and go into the break on a high note. Washington averages 3.1 goals per game and their offense has a nice matchup tonight against a bad Columbus defensive team.
The Blue Jackets are in the basement of the NHL with only 33 points. Columbus has dealt with their own injury issues this season, which have impacted them defensively.
The Jackets are allowing 3.9 goals per game at home this season, which is the most in the league. The Jackets are home off a 4 game road trip an should be looking fireweed to the break, after a disastrous 1st half.
Washington has scored at least 4 goals in each of their last 3 visits to Nationwide Arena and I like them to repeat that tonight, so bet Capitals Team Total Over 3.5 (-127) with BetMGM.
