6 – Number of days remaining until the reigning Stanley Cup champs kick off their 2018-19 season. But it’s also…
…the number of goals scored by Chandler Stephenson in 2017-18, finding the back of the net for the first time after two short stints with the Caps in the previous two seasons. Stephenson was one of three Caps to score his first career NHL goal last season, joining Nathan Walker and Christian Djoos, and finished the season with 18 points (plus another seven during a stellar postseason).
