The Washington Capitals have put together another pretty solid seven-game stretch following the halfway point of the season, with a record of 5-2-0. Both of their losses came against the New York Rangers; the teams split two two-game series over the last two weeks. They also beat the New York Islanders once, and the New Jersey Devils twice. The Caps played six of their last seven games on home ice as well, which theoretically should have worked in their favor. Did it? Let’s find out with a vibe check.
The Capitals’ offensive production has dipped a bit in this recent seven-game stretch, but not enough to be too concerning.
