The 37-year-old has done his part by scoring 20 goals and 35 points in 32 contests this season. Personally I think Toronto’s potential payout on the moneyline is reasonable. The Capitals have the 12th-ranked defense with 2.88 goals allowed per game. the [Washington](https://www.actionnetwork.com/online-sports-betting/washington) Capitals would be a game featuring two streaks colliding.

Dylan Strome and Conor Sheary have filled in adequately enough at the top of the lineup at C and RW, producing 24 and 19 points in 32 games, respectively, but the Capitals are eager to get those two difference-makers back in their top six.
