Fantasy Hockey Schedule Week 18: Are the Caps on the Right Path?

The Washington Capitals have changed their system to focus more on defense in order to be more successful during the playoffs but will that shift pay off? During the month of December the Capitals finished with a record of 5-6-3, which included an eight game losing streak. Washington followed up December with a 5-3-4 record in January and sit in fifth spot overall in the Eastern Conference. The Capitals were shutout three times in January and only scored two or fewer goals in seven of the 12 games. This new system has fantasy players so frustrated as they drafted Capitals expecting a lot of offense. Alexander Ovechkin scored just nine points and Nicklas Backstrom scored ten points in the month of January. Only time will tell if the Capitals are on the right path to the Stanley Cup.

Here is some great information for helping you to decide who to dress for the upcoming fantasy hockey week.
