Caps win another one...
We have the full schedule on our refrigerator and I mark the game outcomes on there. When I was doing that last night, I noticed the rather striking statistic that during calendar year 2025, the Caps have only one regulation loss out of 17 games played. Or, put differently, they have at least one standings point in 16 of 17 games played this year. (The piece of paper is folded over and I didn't feel like removing the magnets to examine that statistic back any further than New Year's, although when I checked the schedule online just now I see that prior to December 31 it was somewhat less remarkable. Four regulation losses in December, four in November, and two in October. Still, that's only 11 regulation losses to date this season out of 54 games played so far.)
