Daniel Sprong deserves to start the 2021-2022 season as a mainstay on the Washington Capitals’ power play unit and see more ice overall than he did just a season ago. The 24-year-old Dutch winger impressed last season in limited time with the Caps.
Sprong’s shooting percentage of 17.6 was second on the team, behind only TJ Oshie. Garnering an average of only 11 minutes and 40 seconds on the ice, Daniel Sprong scored 13 goals and added 7 assists in 41 games.
