NHL Team:  Washington Capitals

Conference: Eastern

Division: Metropolitan

2022-23 Recap: Predicted it was the “End of the Road” for the Caps' playoff runs and was actually correct for once. Getting older and seemed to only care about Ovie's goals by the end of the season. They will always have the 2018 Cup and we will always have the 2018 Cup celebration videos of the Great 8.

Biggest Loss: Conor Sheary - A top 5 point scorer for the team who always plays with pace and has a nose for the net.

Best Addition: Max Pacioretty - If he can stay healthy he's a 30-goal scorer

2023-24 Outlook: Another tough season in the nation's Captial as the core is only getting older. Highlights of the season will be every time #8 scores a goal and inches closer to #99's record.

Player To Watch: Matthew Phillips - Small forward has been a top scorer in the AHL but never got a chance in Calgary. If he gets PP time and plays with good players he could pop off.

2023-2024 SEASON BET: Season total points under 85.5 -110
