We actually like Washington to do well here but we will take the over in this contest as we do think the Caps are active dogs, having turned the corner as they have won four of their past five games after winning just once in their first five. They're coming off a 2-1 win against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Saturday, a contest in which they scored first for just the second time this season. Keep in mind Florida has won head to head vs this team six straight times, meaning Washington has big revenge and couple that with them finally starting to play well, we think they show up and get up for Florida, and the Panthers, meanwhile, are aiming to build off a wild 5-4 overtime victory against the Blue Jackets on Monday. After jumping out to 3-0 lead through the first six minutes and change of the first period, Columbus responded with four straight before Nick Cousins tied it with 57 seconds left in the third period. Carter Verhaeghe sealed it in the extra frame, so we think they might be tired here defensively and in a let down spot, but we think they still score their fair share of goals and we will roll with the over here on Wednesday.
