Without any doubts, the Oilers once again failed to make any measurable progress in 2010-11. Being the worst team in the Western Conference and ranking at the bottom of the league in nearly every statistical category, the Edmonton Oilers might be about to face another setback when Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals are in Alberta on Thursday at midnight GMT.

While the Caps had hit a slump halfway through this year’s NHL campaign, the franchise from D.C. has been playing significantly better as of late. More precisely, Washington won seven of its last ten games and climbed to the third place in the Eastern Conference with month left to go in the regular season. Offensively, Alex Ovechkin is having another solid year, recording 25 goals, 43 assists and 68 points in 66 games so far. That said, the Capitals also performed very well at the defensive end of the ice and gave up just 2.4 goals per contest. Therefore, Washington should be able to secure a home-win when they face the struggling Oilers on Thursday night.
