Counting down the days to the 2015-16 season with a look at how the Caps performed at five on three
3 - Number of days remaining until the 2015-16 season. But it's also...
...the number of five-on-three goals scored by the Caps last season. That may not sound like a lot, but only six teams scored more in 2014-15. It's also a significant improvement over the Caps' total from the 2013-14 campaign, which was a grand total of... one.
The Caps have had a surprising amount of difficulty scoring goals while on a two-man advantage over the years, especially when considering how dominant the power play has been in general.
