The Noon Number: Raising the Bar

10 – Number of players on the current Caps’ roster who have already matched or surpassed career highs in goals, assists, points (for skaters) or wins (for goalies). T.J. Oshie became the latest to match a previous career high with his 21st goal on Saturday night.

For some, of course, this new individual achievement is simply a product of increased playing time; for others, it’s a product of – and at the same time, a reason for – what has been a successful season for the team overall.

Here’s a look at all 10:

GP G A PTS
T.J. Oshie 68 21 (21) 22 43
Andre Burakovsky 65 14 (9) 20 (13) 34 (22)
Dmitry Orlov 68 8 (3) 18 (16) 26 (19)
Tom Wilson 68 6 (4) 14 (13) 20 (17)
Evgeny Kuznetsov 68 20 (11) 49 (26) 69 (37)
Nate Schmidt 60 2 (2) 13 (4) 15 (6)
Brooks Orpik 28 3 (2) 6 9
Michael Latta 41 3 (1) 4 7 (6)
GP W L O/S
Philipp Grubauer 18 8 (6) 6 1
Braden Holtby 55 41 (41) 8 4

Number in bold is the career high set this season; italicized number in parentheses is the previous high.
