Now that we’re in the final quarter of the 2020 NHL season, the pressure is being turned up. The real contenders for the Stanley Cup are refining things while everyone else is struggling to keep up. You can watch the Washington Capitals square off against the Winnipeg Jets live on ESPN+.
The Jets are in a three-game losing stream right now, capped by their 4-3 loss to the Capitals on Tuesday. With a wild-card spot still firmly up for grabs, Winnipeg is going to have to pick up the slack and some wins to guarantee themselves a place in the playoffs.
Washington seems to finally be over what they hope was just a hiccup, losing four straight games before picking up back-to-back wins over the Pittsburgh Penguins and Jets. A playoff spot is the Capitals’ to lose right now as they sit atop the Metropolitan Division and third in the Eastern Conference, but they could definitely use more of a tune-up before the playoffs start if they want to truly make a run at the Stanley Cup.
