Washington is in the midst of a grueling road trip, including three West Coast games and the Capitals are playing their fifth road game in 10 days. Toronto comes home after a six-game trip of its own and looks to bounce back from a 3-2 overtime loss at St. Louis on Tuesday. It was the 11th win in a row for the Blues, who won when Ryan O'Reilly scored 34 seconds into overtime. Toronto goalie Frederik Andersen has a 2.57 goals-against average and .923 save percentage and he stopped 38 shots in Tuesday's losing effort. Washington's Braden Holtby has been inconsistent and owns a 3.04 GAA and .907 save percentage. The Maple Leafs are 35-16 their last 51 home games and 8-2 their last 10 games versus the Metropolitan Division. The Capitals have lost seven of their last nine against teams with winning records. Take the Maple Leafs.
