5 - Number of consecutive games in which the Capitals have given up the game’s first goal in the opening five minutes. It’s happened seven times since the start of February, and 19 times overall this season, which trails only San Jose (21) and Chicago (22) for the most in the League.
Two of the five early goals in this streak also occurred in the first minute of the game (both against the Rangers, somehow) - something the Caps have done five times this season, second in the League behind only Calgary (6).
