29 – Number of days remaining until the 2016-17 season. But it’s also…
…the number of points earned by Brooks Orpik through his first two seasons with the Caps. Orpik has accumulated 26 assists and three goals (all three scored last season, setting a new career high) for a points-per-game rate of 0.24. That tops his rate of 0.19 over 11 seasons with the Pens.
