Washington Capitals face a critical juncture with Dylan Strome and Rasmus Sandin returning to practice after injuries. Can the Caps maintain their playoff position while averaging just 2.7 goals per game?Dan Holmi breaks down the Capitals' 6-4-0 start, examining the stark contrast between elite defensive play and concerning offensive struggles. The analysis covers Logan Thompson's NHL-leading 1.44 GAA and .939 save percentage, Alex Ovechkin's slow start entering his 40th year, and the Metro Division's razor-thin standings where Pittsburgh and New Jersey are surging. Key discussions include Tom Wilson's team-leading production, power play woes ranking 21st league-wide, and whether GM Chris Patrick made enough offseason moves to compete with Carolina and other contenders.The tight Metro Division standings mean the Capitals cannot afford extended losing streaks.
