TJ Oshie is officially on fire after enduring one of the coldest stretches of his career.
Tuesday night against the Dallas Stars, Oshie scored on his own bobblehead night to open the scoring for the Capitals. Oshie now has four goals in his last four games.

After Oshie carried the puck into the offensive zone, he threw a backhand pass to Michal Kempny crashing the net. The pass was off target, but Kempny managed to get his stick on the puck, allowing Alex Ovechkin to fire a shot on Kari Lehtonen just outside the crease.
Lars Eller would get his hands on the big rebound and dish to Oshie skating towards the net. Oshie beat Lehtonen over the shoulder for the goal.
After high-fiving his teammates, Oshie shook his head like a bobblehead as he returned to the bench.
The goal was Oshie’s 16th of the season.
