Despite dropping their first game of the season to the New Jersey Devils, the Capitals have had a pretty successful rest of their week. The Caps’ latest two wins have been spotlighted by Jakub Vrána scoring his first goal for the Caps since 2021, Alex Ovechkin becoming sixth player to tally 700 goals and 700 assists, Logan Thompson showing up his former team, and Charlie Lindgren getting his first win of the season. To put the cherry on top, the Capitals first two wins of the season were both against previously-undefeated teams (Vegas & Dallas).
