Preview: Leafs Verses Capitals



With the Washington Capitals struggling with their defense, the Toronto Maple Leafs have a good chance of winning tonight.

Also, Washington got hammered 8-2 on Saturday by the Philadelphia Flyers.

The Leafs, however, still have to play good tonight.

Washington has Alex Ovechkin, who is first in the NHL in goals scored with nine and has a total of 10 points.

Ovechkin, of course, is always a dangerous player when he's on the ice.

He's (Ovechkin) isn't the team's captain for nothing.

The Leafs also has to be aware of Ovechkin's teammate, T.J. Oshie.  He has eight points this season.

What is even more troubling for the Leafs is that the team has surrendered 3.8 goals per game this season.

On the positive side, the Leafs has Auston Matthews.

Matthews is first on the  team in points with eight.

Also, Leaf's veteran, James Van Riemsdyk has scored a goal in the last three games.

Overall, the Leafs have the advantage tonight, but just a little bit.
