The Washington Capitals and Toronto Maple Leafs face off in a highly anticipated Black Friday matchup, with both teams looking to turn around early season struggles. The Capitals, winning five of their last six games, host the Maple Leafs, who have only three wins in their last ten. Despite injuries, Torontos key players have returned, making Fridays game a tougher challenge for Washington. Both teams excel at five-on-five play, but special teams could be deciding factors. Washingtons power play has seen success, while Torontos historically strong power play is also struggling. To secure a victory, the Capitals will need to focus on strong puck movement and disciplined play, as Torontos defense is capable of generating offense.
