The Capitals had a standout season, too.They finished first in the Eastern Conference and posted their most points in a season since 2016-17, a year before they won the Stanley Cup. It's also the first 50-win season since the 2016-17 campaign.

Montreal not only picked up a 6-3 win to get its first win of the series, it absolutely dominated the game. Even though the Capitals won the first two games of the series, the Canadiens were very much in both games and were giving the Eastern Conference's top seed everything they could handle. They just needed something to go their way.

The Washington Capitals will attempt to take a 3-1 lead as they face the Montreal Canadiens in Game 4 of their Best-of-7 First-Round Series on Sunday. The crowd at Centre Bell will be buzzing as we continue our Stanley Cup Odds series with a Capitals-Canadiens Game 4 prediction and pick.
