15 – Number of days remaining until the start of the Capitals’ 2022-23 season. But it’s also…
…the Capitals’ net power-play percentage last season (15.2%, to be exact), which put them in the bottom third of the League in 2021-22. The Caps had a sub-20% power play overall in 2021-22 at just 18.8%, which is tied for their fifth-lowest overall since the start of the Alex Ovechkin era – and while they scored 48 goals, they also gave up a whopping nine shorthanded goals.
