Neither the Washington Capitals nor Edmonton Oilers have been streaking, but there’s always potential fireworks when these clubs collide.

Edmonton Oilers (-166) vs. Washington Capitals (+138) Total: 6.5 (O -110, U -110)

The Oilers and Capitals enter after losing two consecutive games. Edmonton owns a 7-5 record, while the Capitals sit at 5-6-2.
