Premium Pick

The talented Washington offense hasn't clicked yet but they are still 2-0-1 because of a great defense. Three-time Hart Trophy winner Alex Ovechkin notched his first goal Tuesday and has tallied 33 times in 54 career games against Florida. Star goalie Braden Holtby has stopped 49-of-52 shots in the first two games, and is back in net after backup Philipp Grubauer blanked the Avalanche the last game, 3-0. The Capitals are 40-19 against the Eastern Conference, plus 39-17 playing on one day of rest. The Florida Panthers are home but without key forwards Jonathan Huberdeau (Achilles) and Nick Bjugstad (hand) long term. The Panthers are 0-for-8 with the man advantage in the first three games and 19-47 against a team with a winning percentage above .600. And when these teams clash the Capitals are 12-4. Take Washington.
