Rogers Sportsnet will nationally tonight’s game between the Capitals and Blackhawks tonight in NHL betting action. Here’s a quick look at the matchup.
Capitals at Blackhawks (Sportsnet, 8:30 pm eastern)
Opening Line: Blackhawks -190, Over 5.5 +110
Chicago will be playing its first game since Patrick Sharp, second on the team in points, injured his right knee Tuesday. Sharp is a key member of the Blackhawks’ power play and Chicago was already struggling to score goals with him in the lineup. But don’t forget, teams often elevate their games right after a key player is injured. The Capitals have issues of their own, losing their past five contests and allowing four goals in each of them. The home team has won the last four games in the series, and five of their last six meetings have gone over.
