Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals take on Cole Caufield and the Montreal Canadiens on Thursday in the NHL. These teams have had mixed starts, as the young Canadiens have been threatening for the Eastern Conference lead, while last year 111-point team is at the bottom of their division. How will this one play out? Here is our Capitals vs. Canadiens prediction.

The Capitals are coming off an explosive 7-4 win over a star-studded, but struggling Edmonton Oilers team, and I see them riding this momentum. They have been very average with a 10-8-2 record, and at the bottom of the Metropolitan Division is not okay. They know there is lots of work to do, and taking down an injury riddled Canadiens team (Alex Newhook, Patrik Laine, Kirby Dach, and Kaiden Guhle). Montreal is really struggling right now with a record of 0-3-1 in their last four games, being outscored 19-6. Washington has looked good at 2-0-1 in their last three, and I expect that to improve here. For our Capitals vs. Canadiens prediction, take the Washington Capitals on the money line.
