I'll get involved with the Capitals at this low price with Washington in stop-the-pain mode and in a revenge spot.

The Coyotes defeated the Capitals, 4-1, in Washington on Nov. 11. The Capitals outshot the Coyotes, 39-22, in the loss.

The Capitals had won seven in a row before blowing leads in their last two games against the Ducks and Golden Knights. Only once all season have the defending Stanley Cup champions lost three in a row.

Washington has scored three or more goals in nine straight games. Only three teams average more goals per game than Washington. Arizona, by contrast, ranks 28th in scoring
