Washington at Toronto

Toronto is battling for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. Toronto has 71 points and is only two points behind Carolina. In short, Toronto needs this win desperately. Toronto has only played 66 games compared to the 68 games that both Carolina and Montreal have played (the two teams ahead of them in the standings). Washington on the other hand is well out of the playoff picture. Washington has lost four of five and 9 out of their last 10 games! Most recently, the Caps suffered a 6-2 setback at the hands of the New York Islanders on Saturday night. Tonight will be no different with a ferocious home crowd behind them, Toronto looks to capitalize. We'll take the Leafs at home over the Capitals.
