Tampa Bay Lightning - Washington Capitals. NHL match betting tip and bets

Current form

Tampa Bay ended its three-game away streak on a good note. The team suffered only one defeat from an opponent of its level in the face of Colorado, losing by a one-goal margin (2:3). There was a little lack of activity in the opponent's zone. But the lightning immediately regained their lost points, defeating Vegas with a score of 6:3. Kucherov showed a great game, twice realizing the majority, as well as giving an assist at the very end of the meeting. Indeed, the Lightning have been in great shape lately and don't seem to be going to stop.

Current form

Washington's recession has already dragged on quite a bit. It seemed that a crushing victory over St. Louis would be the starting point and the club would come to its senses, but this did not happen. The Capitals went to visit Pittsburgh, where they again showed a weak defensive game, allowing the Penguins to fully realize themselves in attack, which led to another defeat with a score of 3:5. Goalkeeper Lindgren also did not perform well, reflecting only 86% of shots. Due to the lost points, the Capitals have already left the playoff zone and dropped to 11th place in the table.
