NHL Betting Online: The Capitals have been in the mix as Stanley Cup contenders for the past few years, but so far have been unable to get over the hump. Washington entered the postseason last year as the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference with a final regular season record of 48-23-11, but were bounced by the Tampa Bay Lightning in the second round, a disappointing showing after entering the playoffs with high expectations.
A Stanley Cup title has been the normal goal for the Capitals for the past few seasons, and that won’t change this year. Washington returns its top three offensive playmakers from a year ago. Alex Ovechkin leads the way, as he is coming off a year in which he led the Capitals in goals (32), assists (53) and points (85). Nicklas Backstrom is Ovechkin’s linemate, and the pair worked well together last season, as Backstrom finished the season with 65 points. Alexander Semin added 54 points a season ago.
The team’s defense was top-notch last year, as the Capitals gave up only an average of 2.3 goals per game, which was the fourth best mark in the NHL. The goal-tending will get a boost, as former Florida Panthers goalie Tomas Vokoun comes over to become the starter. He didn’t have much talent around him in Florida but still put up respectable numbers, and his statistics should look better this year with better players in front of him on the ice.
The Capitals have the talent to compete for a Stanley Cup title, it’s just a matter of putting it all together come playoff time. Washington is hoping this is the year it gets over the hump in NHL hockey wagering.
