Montreal at Washington

The Washington Capitals completed the regular season with 121 points, tops in the NHL not only this season, but since the Red Wings posted 124 back in '05-'06. The Caps were pretty much unbeatable at home losing just five games, so although this line has a chalky appearance it is well stocked with value. The Canadiens are coming into the playoffs limping as they finished on the right side of just three of their last 11 games, scoring just 23 goals along the way or 2 per contest. That makes this a monumental task as amazingly the Caps have not scored less than 2 at home the entire season! The Canadiens have taken the doughnut at 0-8 in their last eight playoff games vs. a winning team. I'll go with Washington here.
