The Washington Capitals suffered a difficult shootout loss to the Flyers on Thursday night, but they'll return home on Friday to host the Winnipeg Jets. The game starts at 7 pm and can be found on CSN.
The Jets are a pretty good team record-wise, but they are also pretty vulnerable on the defensive end, where they are 23rd in the NHL in terms of goals allowed per game. The Capitals have enough offensive weapons to exploit that, and if they are playing well, they should be favored in this game, particularly at home.
