Capitals Surge: Dubois’ Dominance, Protas’ Breakout, McMichael’s Impact, and Rybinski’s Recall



In this episode of LO Capitals we dive into the Washington Capitals’ impressive back-to-back victories over the Carolina Hurricanes and Los Angeles Kings as they prepare for a matchup against the Boston Bruins. Pierre-Luc Dubois stands out, contributing significantly to the team’s success, while Aliaksei Protas continues his breakout season alongside Connor McMichael, who is also making his mark offensively. Special teams see a boost with Jakub Vrana’s timely scoring, and goaltender Charlie Lindgren delivers a standout performance. The episode also addresses the absence of Alex Ovechkin and features the exciting recall of Henrik Rybinski from the AHL, with expectations set high for his debut amid upcoming challenges.

  1. Earlier this season I made the comment that Cristall is better right now than Protas…boy was I wrong! He’s really coming into his own…

  2. I had thought of going to the game against the Kings but there are just too many things going on. I do want to get to a Caps game this season. I'd like to see Vrana keep his scoring going. Maybe a career reclamation year for him. Lindgren's save in the Carolina game was reminiscent the Dominator, Dominik Hasek. I hope Henrik Rybinski gets a chance for maybe a few games. The Caps need to make a decision on him as he is in the final year of a three year contract.
    LETS GO CAPS!!

  3. I am traveling from The Dolomites 🏒🏔🚠to see ⭐️The Caps vs TML🍁 on 28 Dec. Hope to welcome Ovi back!8️⃣

  4. A lot of fans of other organizations are probably looking at Dubois' hockey card, thinking "well he's been okay. D.C is delusional".

    But what those people haven't seen is his play away from the puck and how he has some of the most silky passing as I've seen in the organization. Yeah he's not racked up 30 secondary assists like some of the other elite center, but his drive of play and domination on the defensive side of things are all things we were told he "didn't have because he doesn't care".

    Glad we didn't listen to the salesmen. This guy has been lights out, along with Pro and Mikey. Wilson has been great as well. Just need to get that Strome line going again so we have a one two punch. Big props to Carberry for being the secret sauce we needed to get the most out of our players. The man is a magician.
