Maple Leafs vs. Capitals predictions and NHL picks for Thursday, December 18. Morgan Rielly continues tapping into his shooting prowess.
Morgan Rielly is one of the few consistent elements of the Maple Leafs' offense, consistently clearing his 1.5 SOG prop, which he should again vs. a leaky Capitals defense that surrenders a ton of shot volume.
Morgan Rielly has been a consistent shooter this season, and my Maple Leafs vs. Capitals predictions are backing his shot market again tonight against a team allowing high shot volumes.However, there is one prop that has been hitting with regularity over the last month, and that’s the Over onWashington has hit a dry spell lately, dropping four of its last five games. In this stretch, the Caps have struggled in their own zone, allowing more than 30 shots in each contest, giving up 36.6 shots on average per night. They’ve also been undisciplined throughout this stretch, playing short-handed 17 times, which has contributed to the lofty shot totals. In addition to leading the Leafs in ice time at 5-on-5, Rielly is back on the first power-play unit and should get more shot opportunities if the Caps continue their parade to the sin bin. I’ll continue to pound the Maple Leafs shot market with the Caps surrendering 36.6 shots over their last five outings.is averaging 3.7 shots per game since returning from injury and needs a big bounce-back game after a pair of stinkers earlier this week. Toronto averages 3.28 goals per game, and the Caps have allowed three or more goals in four of their last five outings.: Our team of experts has thoroughly researched and handpicked each product that appears on our website.
