To determine who the stars are we’ll look at several things. First, the traditional stats. Goals, assists, points and the usual goaltender stats. Then we’ll look at the eye test. Who didn’t necessarily put up points, but who looked good. Then advanced stats. Shot attempts, scoring chances, etc.
The Capitals have started the season very well going 2-0-1 beating the reigning Stanley Cup champions Blues, the Islanders who were a playoff team last season and finished their three games in four nights with an overtime loss vs the Carolina Hurricanes.
With a 2-0-1 record there are plenty of good performances to pick from.
