Washington at Florida

The return of Alex Ovechkin and the stellar goaltending of Vitek Vanecek got Washington back on track after losing its final four regular season games and the Capitals won Game 1 by a 4-2 score on Tuesday. Ovechkin had an assist on Evgeny Kuznetsov's tying goal and T.J. Oshie scored the go-ahead goal midway through the third period and Florida lost for the first time in regulation in 40 games this season when leading after the second intermission. The Panthers have lost four of their last five games and they have lost nine of 13 versus teams with winning records. The Capitals have won nine of their last 13 road games and they are 31-14-7 UNDER their past 52 playoff games as underdogs, including Tuesday's game. Florida is 7-2-4 UNDER its last 13 games and the starting goalies average a 2.66 goals-against average. Vanecek's stats match up well versus Sergei Bobrovsky as he owns a .909 save percentage and four shutouts. Play the Capitals on the puck line and the UNDER.
