Dan Rosen, a journalist for the official National Hockey League (NHL) website, commented on the future developments in NHL.
Dan Rosen, on his official NHL website
Ovechkin is 37 now, and I think he'll score 45 goals - it's the right number. But Wilson won't get to his 24 pucks because of a late start to the season, and Washington also has to replace Bäckström. Strome and Brown can make up for something, but not for everything. The Islanders, Columbus Blue Jackets and New Jersey Devils should perform better than they did last season. And the Atlantic Division should step up, too, with the upgrades made by Ottawa, Buffalo and Detroit.
On October 18, the Washington Capitals beat the Vancouver Canucks, 6-4, on home ice in a regular season National Hockey League (NHL) game.
