When Washington Capitals hockey returns, T.J. Oshie will dominate.

We’ve talked plenty about Alex Ovechkin, who in no doubt will be an impactful player when the season is back. But what about T.J. Oshie, the Washington Capitals right winger who’s been itching for playoff action since being on the sidelines during Game 7 last year due to injury?

Oshie was fully healthy this season and had 26 goals and 23 assists for 49 points before the pause through 69 games. That’s a one goal improvement from a year ago and arguably his best season in a Caps sweater since the 2016-17 season where he scored 33 goals.
