Description: Tarik El-Bashir joins Jeff Marek from the rink to break down the Washington Capitals’ surge, highlighted by Alex Ovechkin heating up and driving scoring at age 40. Tarik updates the status of John Carlson, Charlie Lindgren, and Ryan Leonard, explains how the team has sustained its structure despite key injuries, and outlines what’s fueling the Caps’ 10-1-1 run. He also dives into Tom Wilson’s bid for a spot on Team Canada’s Olympic roster — what coaches value, how his physical profile fits the international game, and whether his overall impact is enough to earn serious consideration. With the Quinn Hughes trade chatter swirling, Tarik also weighs in on whether Washington could realistically enter the sweepstakes. A sharp, wide-angle look at a team suddenly back in the mix.#AllCaps #NHL #TheSheet #TarikElBashir #DailyFaceoff #AlexOvechkin #TomWilson #TeamCanadaSHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼 Fan Duel: https://www.fanduel.com/👍🏼Bauer: https://www.bauer.com/👍🏼Uber Eats: https://www.ubereats.com/caReach out to sales@thenationnetwork.com to connect with our Sales Team and discuss opportunities to partner with us!If you liked this, check out:🚨 OTT - Coming in Hot Sens | https://www.youtube.com/c/thewallyandmethotshow🚨 TOR - LeafsNation | https://www.youtube.com/@theleafsnation401🚨 EDM - OilersNation | https://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom🚨 VAN - CanucksArmy | https://www.youtube.com/@Canucks_Army🚨 CGY - FlamesNation | https://www.youtube.com/@FNBarnBurner🚨 Daily Faceoff Fantasy & Betting | www.youtube.com/@DFOFantasyandBetting____________________________________________________________________________________________Connect with us on ⬇️Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/daily_faceoff💻 Website: https://www.dailyfaceoff.com🐦 Follow on twitter: https://x.com/DailyFaceoff💻 Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dailyfaceoffDaily Faceoff Merch:https://nationgear.ca/collections/daily-faceoff Hosted on Acast.
