From Milano's Struggles to Capitals' Offensive Surge: Ovechkin, Strome, and Protas Shine in the 2024-25 NHL Season
Locked On Capitals - Daily Podcast On The Washington CapitalsAbout this episode
Sonny Milano is struggling in his recent performances, evidenced by limited ice time and poor statistical metrics, prompting speculation about a potential stint in the AHL to help him regain his form. Meanwhile, the Washington Capitals are enjoying a strong offensive start to the 2024-25 NHL season, averaging 4.18 goals per game, largely driven by standout performances from veterans Alex Ovechkin and Dylan Strome, who have accumulated significant points together. Ovechkin is showing signs of resurgence, potentially threatening Wayne Gretzky's all-time goals record, while Strome is on track for a career year. Aliaksei Protas is also emerging as a key contributor, and Trevor van Riemsdyk has stepped up in a larger role due to an injury to Jakub Chychrun. Overall, the Capitals have improved their ability to maintain leads but face challenges in closing out games, particularly in recent matchups. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
