Both teams arrive at Capital One Arena with momentum. The Capitals have won two straight, following a 5-3 shootout of styles against Pittsburgh with a controlled 3-1 win over the New York Rangers on Thursday. The Kraken answered a 6-2 stumble against Vegas with the most eye-catching result of their week: a 6-3 demolition of Detroit on the road.

History favors the home side. Washington has won four of the last six meetings, though Seattle took the most recent one emphatically, a 5-1 win in January. Both teams come off wins, and the margins in this fixture have often been tight.

Watchlist
  • The Capitals have won consecutive home games, outscoring Pittsburgh and the Rangers 8-4 across those two wins.
  • Seattle's offense is peaking with six goals in each of their last two victories, but they also conceded six to Vegas in between.
  • Only 2 of the last 6 meetings were decided by two goals or fewer, so expect the winner to create separation.
