Washington at Toronto

First-place Washington has won five of six scoring 28 goals to rank third in goals scored. The Capitals have an NHL-best road win total (six) and are well rested with three days off. Washington is 36-20 on the road games against teams that kill 19% or less of their power plays. Toronto still has major defensive problems at #24 in goals allowed. Toronto captain John Tavares remains out with a broken finger, defenseman Travis Dermott is returning from shoulder surgery, while left winger Zach Hyman (knee surgery) has yet to receive clearance to play. The Maple Leafs have lost three of four and Washington is 31-16 away versus teams that allow 3+ goals per game. Play Washington.
