Washington - New Jersey: betting tip (cf. 1.75) and bets on the NHL match

Top bets from an expert

Command Analysis

The victory over Montreal turned out to be very timely for Spencer Carbery's team. Before that, Washington lost to Seattle (3:5) and Carolina (2:4), and in both cases there were serious problems in defense. The situation was also difficult against the Canadians. After two periods, the numbers 3:3 were on the scoreboard, but in the final segment, the hosts still managed to create an advantage.
Justin Hall and Alex Tuck played a crucial role. The first put the Capitals ahead in the third period, and the second scored a double and scored the winning goal. Taka's goal in the minority turned out to be especially effective. True, Montreal reduced the gap to a minimum, but the hosts retained the victory (5:4). At the same time, Washington scored 24 goals in seven matches, but already conceded 22. The attack works quite confidently, but the defense regularly makes unpleasant mistakes. Pierre-Luc Dubois and Matt Roy also did not help the team in the previous meeting.

Seven goals against the Rangers were a real highlight of the start of the season for New Jersey. Moreover, the opponent had previously been quite reliable in defense and won six of the eight meetings. However, Sheldon Keogh's team completely ignored the previous results of the New Yorkers and defeated them with a score of 7:1. The main character was Luke Hughes, who scored a double, and in total six different goal authors were noted in the protocol.
The Devils had a particularly strong second period, scoring four goals. Niko Hishir, Arseniy Hrytsyuk, Evan Rodriguez, Cody Glass and Stefan Noesen also scored. Niko Dawes blocked 18 shots, leaving almost no chance for his opponent to return to the game. A few days earlier, New Jersey beat Detroit in overtime (5-4), with Jack Hughes scoring three points. However, it's too early to completely forget about the team's problems. Before these victories, there were defeats from Utah (3:5) and Ottawa (1:4), in which the defense was far from perfect.
Tip and bets
Twelve goals scored in two meetings perfectly characterize the current state of New Jersey's offense. It is especially impressive that hockey players from different combinations are able to distinguish themselves, and not just the leaders of the first level. However, Washington is also quite dangerous ahead. Carbery's team has scored at least three goals five times in seven matches, and the last victory over Montreal should add confidence. At the same time, both teams regularly make mistakes near their own goal, which creates the prerequisites for open hockey.
The guests will certainly try to take advantage of the speed of their attackers, and the hosts are able to respond through the active play of Tak, Ovechkin and the rest of the leaders. Given the recent results, it is quite difficult to expect a cautious confrontation here. Most likely, the opponents will create enough chances to score at least six goals between them.
