Matt Niskanen Plays Big Minutes, Scores Only Goal for Capitals
6 years agoWashington Capitals defenseman Matt Niskanen cashed in on a power-play opportunity to score Washington's lone goal Friday night. With a season-high 28:29 minutes of time on ice, including 6:41 minutes while on the power play, Niskanen had plenty of opportunities to produce and took advantage of it in the second period. Niskanen has eight points in 15 games this season, but as long as John Carlson is out of the lineup Niskanen should remain on the top power-play unit, and that alone makes him a strong streaming option.
