Premium Pick

Washington is in double revenge after losing the first two meetings this season, including 5-2 on Feb. 6. Neither team has a realistic shot at the playoffs, but the Capitals will have the decided advantage with Charlie Lindgren expected to be in net tonight. Lindgren is 10-8-4 with a 2.65 goals-against average and a .913 save percentage with three shutouts this season. Jake Allen is likely for Montreal and he is 5-10-3 with a 3.63 GAA. The Canadiens are No. 27 in the league scoring only 2.78 goals per game and No. 28 allowing 3.52. Washington is 15-3 its past 18 games as a favorite of -110 to -150. Montreal has lost 10 of its past 15 games and it has allowed seven goals twice its past three games. Take the Capitals.
