A look at a very good game for a recent call-up
2 – Number of points earned by Joe Snively in last night’s loss, with an assist on T.J. Oshie’s goal in the first period and a beauty of a goal to tie it up in the second:

That marks Snively’s second-career multipoint game, his first coming almost exactly a year ago when he put up a three-point night (2-1-3) against the Canadiens back on February 10, 2022. Snively now has an impressive 10 points in 19 games with the Caps, and makes a bit of Commonwealth history:
Joe Snively is just the third Virginia-born player to record 10+ career points in the NHL. The Herndon native joins defensemen Eric Weinrich (Roanoke) and Scott Lachance (Charlottesville) on that list.
