The Washington Capitals (25-12-4) will go for their second straight win on Tuesday when they host a team they have surprisingly struggled against lately in the Philadelphia Flyers (15-21-6) as large home favorites at sportsbooks.
The Capitals have lost three of the past four meetings with the Flyers, who will be playing the second game of a back-to-back situation and trying to end a season-high seven-game losing streak.
NHL betting line: The Capitals opened as -200 favorites (wager $200 to win $100); the total is at 5.5 goals, according to sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.
