3 - Number of players in the NHL with at least 12 even-strength goals and no goals on the power play, including the Capitals’ own Jakub Vrana. Vrana joins Toronto’s Kasperi Kapanen (13) and the Islanders’ Brock Nelson (12) as the only other players to have accomplished that feat.

Vrana’s 12 goals on the season currently have him second on the team behind on Alex Ovechkin, and is just one shy of his entire total from his rookie season.
