Roster, Preparations & Expectations
Many may think that the Washington Capitals have spent the summer celebrating their first Stanley Cup win. But the hangover was not too severe. They also won their fourth straight division title. The team did slump at times, including a losing streak of seven games in January but they’ve also had their share of dominant stretches.
The Capitals began the season with almost the same roster that they ended with in June 2018. Along the way they lost few players and added some as well. They added veteran winger Carl Hagelin and depth defenseman Nick Jensen. Hagelin was part of the Pittsburgh Penguins team that bounced the Capitals from the playoffs both in 2016 and 2017 and won the Stanley Cup. The 30-year old said “They like that I’ve won it before, so they can talk about Stanley Cup stories,” Hagelin says. “If I hadn’t, it might be a little awkward.”
The Caps have Evgeny Kuznetsov as top center. With 32 points, he was the highest scoring player in Stanley Cup playoffs 2018. These are the most points scored by any player in a single postseason since 2009 by Evgeni Malkin. The right winger for the Capitals is Thomas Wilson whom many teams find tough to find an answer to. The Capitals have particularly been strong and impressive on their second and third line this season, all thanks to Brett Connolly’s career-high 22 goals.
With Bradley Holtby on the roster, the Washington Capitals enter the playoffs with no uncertainty in net. Holtby who ended the season with five back to back wins and a save percentage of .947 across those games, is well in form and very focused for the upcoming games.
The Beginning of the Title Defense
The morale of the Washington Capitals is definitely high. All they need to do is remain focused and not get over confident. The title defense for the Caps begins with their game against the Carolina Hurricanes on April 11.
The Capitals and the Hurricanes are different in almost every way possible. Carolina is a young and aggressive side while Washington is a seasoned team with a roster that has some of the most skilled players in the game.
Nevertheless, in playoff hockey anything is possible and history has enough moments as testaments. So get ready for the Washington Capitals Stanley Cup playoffs and come on to cheer the defending champs live. Make sure you don’t miss this opportunity.
