January by the numbers

It was quite a January for the Capitals… 13-2-0 for the month, franchise-tying winning streak, tops in the Eastern Conference. By the numbers, it was a spectacular month. Here is the team summary with a few notes thrown in…


And while the “sum” was something to behold, so were the “parts”…



And while we’re at it, this Caps team has been quick to the “tens” – 10 points, 20 points, etc. They are in a position to obliterate the franchise record for standings points. They are on a pace for 119, and here is now they are getting there (with the record for each fastest ten-point segment -- in games it took to reach it -- for comparison)…


Quite a month.
