Washington ends a three-game road trip a long way from home. It's also their fifth road game over the last eight contests and the second of a back-to-back after playing at Vegas yesterday. Goalie Logan Thompson (.913 save percentage) played yesterday, and they may go with backup Charlie Lindgren, who has a .897 save percentage. While Washington plays its third road game in four nights, Utah is home working on two days of rest. They're 4-3-1 at the Delta Center. Washington's top-ranked offense is the third straight top-three scoring team that Utah will face during its homestand. On Wednesday, Utah held Carolina to just one goal as Karel Vejmelka had 49 saves, a 4-1 win as a +170 underdog. Carolina ranks third, averaging 4.21 goals per game. On Friday, Vegas needed an empty-netter to reach the four-goal mark. Utah is 4-2-0 versus Eastern Conference opponents. Play Utah.
