Impact McMichael found the back of the net for the first time this season, but an area in which he's been standing out is the playmaking department, with three assists across his first four contests. McMichael recorded a career-high 33 points in 80 regular-season appearances for the Capitals in 2023-24. While the season is still in its early stages, he could be in line to surpass those numbers if he stays healthy, as he's featuring regularly in a top-six role.

The arrival of Pierre-Luc Dubois in a June trade from Los Angeles complicates McMichael's prospects to remain as a scoring-line center, but the Capitals are high on his upside and he should continue to garner a top-six role once the 2024-25 season gets rolling.

The Caps need their youth to step forward, so the next 25-30 games will be a good test to see if he can step into a second-line role or develop into an effective third liner.
