Capitals vs Canadiens Game 2 Prediction: Ride the Caps -1.5 After Last Night’s Winning Pick

Coming off a sharp win in last night’s NHL playoff action, we’re heading right back to the ice with confidence. Our Wild +1.5 (-140) play against Vegas cashed in a tight Game 2, and we’re aiming to keep the momentum alive with this Capitals vs Canadiens Game 2 prediction.

Washington took Game 1 in overtime, 3-2, behind a clutch two-goal performance from Alexander Ovechkin. Now, they return to Capital One Arena where they’ve gone 27-9-6 this season. With a 1-0 series lead and playoff momentum, this veteran squad is in a prime spot to press their advantage.

Montreal enters Game 2 with a decent 6-1-3 stretch, but they've been shaky on the road (17-19-6) and continue to struggle with penalties — they rank 3rd in the NHL in total infractions. The Caps have thrived in games where opponents lose discipline, going 17-6-3 when getting more power plays.

With a deep, experienced roster and a red-hot power play, Washington has all the tools to secure a more decisive win tonight.

Final Pick: Capitals -1.5 (+145) – 4 Units

For tonight’s Capitals vs Canadiens Game 2 prediction, we’re locking in Washington -1.5 on the puckline. After narrowly escaping Game 1, the Caps should deliver a stronger 60-minute effort at home. At +145, this line offers great value for a 4-unit play.
