LiontipsWashington vs Los Angeles. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (October 23, 2022).
Command Analysis
Washington can't mount a winning streak. After two solid victories over Montreal (3:1) and Vancouver (6:4), the Capitals suffered a defeat at Ottawa (2:5). They couldn't deliver goals unless on power play and completely fell apart after the first period. We would also mention that the Capitals don't have strong goaltenders this season. Darcy Kuemper, who usually is in goal, is too inconsistent.
Los Angeles started the season with two losses at home. Now the Kings are enjoying a road trip, during which they recorded three consecutive victories. Among their opponents were Minnesota (7:6) and Nashville (4:3 SO). In the last outing, however, the Kings were crushed by Pittsburgh. Todd McLellan's side has a good attacking line and will most likely stick to an open brand of hockey this season.
