I don't think most thought this series would reach 6 games, but here we are. The Caps are a tough team off a loss home or away as the Habs have already witnessed in this series. Washington has taken down the Habs, on their own ice by a count of 11-4. What it really shows is how slim the Canadiens margin for error is here, as they are not on the same level as the Caps. Caps boast a 50-21 mark in their last 71 as a favorite, which extends to 41-13 when allowing 2 goals or less in their last game. Canadiens just 2-11 in their last 13 as a playoff dog. Washington in this one.
