Washington Capitals Stats
- Aliaksei Protas is riding a three-game point streak and became the third player on the team to hit the 20-goal mark, and he ranks second on the team in points with 40 on the season. His 19 goals at even strength are the sixth-most in the NHL.
- Ethen Frank leads the Capitals in goals since his call-up with three through seven games. He scored his third of the season back on Thursday on a nice breakaway chance.
- Alex Ovechkin picked up his 22nd goal of the season and 875th of his career back on Thursday and sits 20 away from passing Wayne Gretzky.
Washington Capitals Storylines
- Keep an eye on Dylan Strome, who's overdue to break out of a recent slide. Alex Ovechkin mentioned pregame that their line looked better on Thursday and has been talking about more ways to bust out, so watch for that trio.
- Jakob Chychrun remains a red-hot addition to the blue line with points in three of his last five, so look out for him.
- Andrew Mangiapane is getting some great looks as he fits in seamlessly on that fourth line.
- Pierre-Luc Dubois has points in two of his last three games and had both goals in a 2-1 OT win over Vancouver just a few weeks back. Look for him to shine again.
