Scoring goals is the main objective in the game of hockey. For T.J. Oshie, thank goodness for that. Early in the season Oshie leads the Capitals in goals with seven. On a team with Alex Ovechkin, one of the greatest goal scorers of all time, Oshie leads the Capitals in goals scored. If I were him I’d frame that sentence.
While leading a team in goals is a good thing Oshie hasn’t exactly been the best version of himself so far this season. If it weren’t for the goals he’s scored I’m not sure I could tell you he has played this season.
