In the latest episode of Locked On Capitals, the Washington Capitals are highlighted for their impressive performance this season, boasting a record of 36 wins, 11 losses, and 8 overtime losses, which places them at the top of the Eastern Conference with 80 points. Alex Ovechkin continues to be the focal point of the team as he chases Wayne Gretzky’s all-time goals record, currently sitting at 879 career goals, just 16 away from breaking the record. Other players like Dylan Strome and Aliaksei Protas have also stepped up, contributing significantly to the team's success. Despite facing challenges with key injuries to veteran players Nicklas Backstrom and T.J. Oshie, the Capitals are making a strong case for a playoff run. In a separate segment, the podcast addresses a serious incident involving Caps prospect Cam Allen, who has been charged with multiple offenses following a single-vehicle collision. Witnesses reported disturbing signs at the scene, and Allen now faces grave charges including impaired driving and failure to report the accident. The London Knights have acknowledged the situation and are cooperating with the investigation, as Allen is set to appear in court on March 6. This incident raises concerns about accountability for young players representing the organization, adding a layer of complexity to the promising season the Capitals are having.
