In his last two games (2-0-0), Jarry has saved 47 of 49 shots (.959 SV%) and will look to continue his stretch of fine play against the Washington Capitals, who he recorded a 19-save shutout against earlier this season. The Penguins are sizeable -172 home favourites against the Capitals on Tuesday.
