Taylor Raddysh - Supplies assist in overtime lossRaddysh logged an assist and two shots on goal on Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Canadiens.
ImpactRaddysh snapped a five-game point drought with the helper. The winger has bounced around the Capitals' lineup, and he played on a new-look third line with Lars Eller and Ethen Frank in this contest, a trio that combined for the team's second goal. Raddysh is at 18 points, 51 shots on net, 36 hits and an even plus-minus rating through 42 outings. While he's done better than last season (14 points in 73 contests), Raddysh's bottom-six spot this campaign doesn't bode well for sustained success.

Juraj Slafkovsky - Manages assist FridaySlafkovsky provided an assist in Friday's 3-2 overtime win over the Capitals.
ImpactSlafkovsky set up Cole Caufield's tally in the second period. This was Slafkovsky's eighth game in a row without a goal, but he's earned five assists in that span while seeing more consistent time on the top line in the absence of Patrik Laine (illness). Overall, Slafkovsky has four goals, 19 helpers, 47 shots on net, 86 hits and a minus-10 rating through 38 appearances. He's a little behind the pace that saw him record 50 points in 2023-24, though that's largely due to a decrease from shooting 13.2 percent last season to 8.5 percent this year while also dropping from 1.85 to 1.23 shots per game.

Ethen Frank - Logs assist in debutFrank had an assist, two hits and two PIM in Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to Montreal.
ImpactFrank, who made his NHL debut Friday, hustled to negate an icing, then schooled Arber Xhekaj behind Montreal's net before setting up Lars Eller for the game-tying goal early in the third period. It was the type of hustle play that could buy an NHL novice more shifts. The 26-year-old earned his callup to Washington, having scored 20 goals in 35 games for AHL Hershey.
