The Washington Capitals are absolutely in a groove when it comes to taking points off of anyone in their way. They continued that groove Sunday in Carolina with a 4-2 win over the Hurricanes.
It wasn’t pretty at some stages but they got it done on the road still missing what feels like half of their lineup.
Alex Ovechkin now has 24 5v5 points this season
Aaron Ekblad is the only other player in the league who has even been on the ice for 24 of their team’s 5v5 goals this season
