Capitals' John Carlson: Collects hat trick of helpers
Carlson tallied three assists, one on the power-play and logged 23:59 of ice time during Saturday's 4-2 win over the Sabres.
Carlson has been scorching hot offensively despite not having Alex Ovechkin (fibula) to feed pucks to on the power play. Carlson has notched a goal and nine points in his last eight games. After leading the NHL in ice time during the 2023-24 season, the Capitals are managing the 36-year-old's minutes more to start 2024-25. Carlson appears to be flourishing with 23 points in 28 games while seeing a more normalized power-play workload.

Capitals' John Carlson: Banks assist Sunday
Carlson registered a power-play assist in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Hurricanes.

Capitals' John Carlson: Garners assist in win
Carlson notched an assist, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Rangers.
Carlson had been held off the scoresheet in the previous two games after opening the year on a five-game streak. The 34-year-old set up Nic Dowd late in the third period for an empty-net tally. Carlson has two goals, five assists, 20 shots on net, 13 hits, 11 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating across eight contests this season. His spot on the top power-play unit is likely to be more secure if Jakob Chychrun (upper body) misses time, though Carlson would also have to adjust to a new defensive partner at even strength.

Capitals' John Carlson: Extends point streak
Carlson tallied a goal and added four shots during Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Flyers.
Carlson has posted two goals and six points and has scored in each of Washington's first five games to start the 2024-25 season. The 34-year-old might not lead the NHL in ice time like he did during the 2023-24 campaign, but the Capitals continue to lean heavily on Carlson in all situations. The New Jersey native remains a top-end fantasy producer from the back end and should provide plenty of dividends for fantasy managers.

Capitals' John Carlson: Notches two points
Carlson tallied a power-play goal, an even-strength assist and four shots during Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Devils.
Carlson opened the scoring off the draw during Washington's first power play of the season. The 34-year-old notched 10 goals and 52 points during the 2023-24 regular season and should be in line to lead the team's defense corps in scoring again this season. The arrivals of Matt Roy (lower body) and Jakob Chychrun should help the Capitals spread the ice time around more evenly and help keep Carlson fresh as the season progresses.

Carlson was the lone scorer for the Capitals in Friday's 3-1 Game 3 loss to the Rangers.
Carlson opened the scoring with a fluttering shot that eluded Igor Shesterkin, but the lead was short-lived as the Blueshirts countered with two goals of their own in the first period, followed by a power-play insurance tally in the second frame. The venerable defenseman is up to 20 goals and 75 total points through 126 career playoff games, but being down 3-0 in the series, the Capitals need goals any way they can get them.
