NHL Picks Contest: LA Kings at Washington Capitals
I think the LA Kings are a good team. They’re inconsistent at times offensively, but they’re deep and they have one of the best defensive groups from top to bottom in the NHL. Part of that is likely because Quick is so solid in net.
The Capitals are volatile and inconsistent and difficult to trust. They’re great when they want to be, or when they’re streaking, but they’re unpredictable. Ovechkin is having a wonderful season, but goaltending issues (even since Halak), lack of depth, and poor defensive play have doomed them this season. They’re in the fight but they need help.
So, a desperate Caps team with a new goalie battling for their playoff lives against a surging Kings team. It’s no wonder the line is even and the computer is confused. I see no reason to bet this one — my lean is to the Kings but I’m not putting money on it. Instead, put your pride on the line in our Z-Code picks competition. This could be the final round of the NHL season!
