These two powerhouses faced each other in Fla. in November, with the Panthers winning in overtime. As good as the Panthers are at home, they have struggled on the road lately, with a couple of unlikely losses. The Caps are also a very good home team and it is likely their better goaltender is in the net today. The Caps and Panthers are evenly matched; both with solid offenses and defenses in the NHL top five. All things being equal, take the home team Capitals to win tonight.
