Capitals vs. Avalanche Best Bets
Tuesday, January 24, 2023 - 9:00PM ET
PICK: Avalanche Team Total Over 3.5 (+110)
The streaking Colorado Avalanche return home from a 3 game trip to face off against the Washington Capitals tonight at Ball Arena.
The Avalanche have won 5 games in a row and have scored at least 4 goals in 4 of those games, totaling 23 goals in that span.
The recently returning Valeri Nuchiskin has solidified this forward group. While the Avs got big Val back, star defenseman Cale Makar has missed the last 3 games with a lower body injury.
His status for tonight remains uncertain but the Avs still have plenty of firepower. Colorado is currently 2 points behind the Flames for the final Wildcard spot in the West and they are 1 point behind the Wild for 3rd in the Central.
After a hot start to the season, the Caps have suffered an up and down January as they are 4-5-1. The Caps still hold the first Wild Card spot in the East, despite dealing with injury concerns of their own.
Defenseman John Carlson has been sidelined for a month, TJ Oshie is out for personal reasons and Alex Ovechkin missed Washington's last game, which was a 6-2 loss to Vegas, and is day to day with a lower body injury.
These teams met in Washington earlier in the season, which resulted in a 4-0 Washington win. Darcy Keumper is projected to make the start against his old team, I am sure he will be up for this one but with the Avs are rolling right now, especially on home ice.
Colorado has scored a total of 17 goals over their last 3 home games. I will gladly back their team total here, at a surprising plus money price, so bet Avalanche Team Total Over 3.5 (+110) with BetMGM.
