Numbers for Now: Down the Stretch They Come

As the Caps make their final push for a place in the postseason, here are a handful of numbers to ponder…

10 – Number of different Caps with a game-winning goal since February 9, tied for most in the League (Rangers, Predators, Panthers). That list includes Beck Malenstyn, Michael Sgarbossa, Aliaksei Protas and others, with Alex Ovechkin, Dylan Strome and John Carlson leading the way with two apiece. Game-winning goals are a somewhat dubious stat, to be sure, but the Caps have been getting contributions from everywhere during this run, with 18 different goal-scorers, and nary a goal-less forward who has played more than three games.
