Exciting developments are happening for Washington Capitals fans, particularly with standout prospects Andrew Cristall and Hendrix Lapierre. Cristall, a 20-year-old winger in the WHL, made headlines by becoming the first player this season to surpass the 100-point mark, achieving 101 points with 37 goals and 64 assists in just 43 games. He demonstrated resilience during a recent game, where, despite taking a high stick to the mouth, he returned with a protective face shield and contributed significantly to his team’s victory. On the other hand, Lapierre, a center for the Hershey Bears, has been named the AHL Player of the Week after breaking a 38-game goalless drought, scoring five points in just two games, leading to back-to-back wins for the Bears.Meanwhile, Alex Ovechkin is using the mid-season break from the 4 Nations Face-Off to focus on his fitness and prepare for a historic record chase. At 39 years old, he is leading the Capitals with 26 goals this season and needs just 16 more to surpass Wayne Gretzky’s all-time goal record of 894. Training with former NHL player Darius Kasparaitis, Ovechkin maintains a positive mindset, as he emphasizes the importance of simply enjoying the game while pursuing a remarkable milestone in his career.

I still think the 3 line has been fine. Sure they could score a little more, but it is a solid group that is generally break even or better. They have the most limited role in game and it’s harder to put up points when they get less ice time and zero powerplay time. I like Hendrix and think his personality is still a great fit for the team. He has great speed and can maybe be a second line player or turn into a really good defensive centre. Saying that he is a really good trade chip too.
Could Cristall join the Caps on the 3rd line for the playoffs? I was just wondering if this was a possibility. I know Leonard is already ready by playoff time.
