24 – Number of days remaining until the 2017-18 season. But it’s also…
…the number of players in Capitals history to score at least 30 goals in a season, with T.J. Oshie’s 33 goals in 2016-17 putting him into that elite club as the 24th. Oshie had his first career 30+ goal season last year (after coming tantalizingly close the year before) – and did so in just 68 games, setting a career high in goals/game (0.49) as well.
