4 – Number of Capitals who have picked up their first career NHL point so far this season, with Chandler Stephenson and Madison Bowey both joining that club against Vancouver. Stephenson scored his first goal late in last night’s loss, assisted by Bowey, to cut the deficit to four.
Stephenson and Bowey join Christian Djoos and Nathan Walker as the four rookies to hit the scoresheet this year; Djoos and Walker both picked up their first goal in their respective NHL debuts, Djoos striking against the Penguins (and adding an assist) while Walker added to the lopsided total in the home opener against Montreal.
