Listen "Washington Capitals Debate: Dylan Strome vs Pierre-Luc Dubois as Ovechkin’s Center"
Episode Synopsis
The Washington Capitals face a pivotal decision heading into the new season: Who should center Alex Ovechkin? Dylan Strome delivered a career-high 82-point campaign, showcasing strong hockey IQ, smart decision-making, and proven chemistry with Ovechkin. While not the fastest or most physical player, Strome consistently generates offense, wins crucial shifts in the offensive zone, and provides the steady, reliable playmaking that Ovi thrives on.On the other side, newcomer Pierre-Luc Dubois brings size, physicality, and elite advanced stats to Washington. With a 62% Goals For Percentage and 2.42 points per 60 minutes, Dubois has the raw upside to be a dominant force. However, penalties and consistency remain question marks. The battle between Strome’s reliability and Dubois’ high ceiling could define the Capitals’ lineup decisions this year—and may be one of the biggest storylines to follow all season.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!GametimeToday's episode is brought to you by Gametime.
