The Caps are getting back on track after three consecutive losses, have now taken their last two. They have shored up some defensive leaks that made themselves known on the road early on, but have allowed just 2.6 a game over their last 10 travelling. The Thrashers went through a bad stretch of allowing 4 goals or more in 10 of 11 games, but were air-tight last time out allowing just 1 goal. Washington off a single day of rest has been at their best posting a 61-29 mark, and 4-1-1 to the UNDER as a heavy road chalk in their last six. The Thrashers really biting the bullet vs. the good teams, at just 26-62-4 vs. teams at .600+. I think the Caps score plenty here, but expect them to shutdown the Leafs, and I like this one to go to Washington, and to go UNDER.
