Ratings for the upcoming popular video game NHL 20 are coming out and two Washington Capitals players have made it onto the top 50 list.

We are just weeks away from NHL 20 hitting the shelves and we can’t wait to give it a whirl. While NHL 20 hasn’t released the entire top 50 list, we already know which two Capitals players will make the list.

One is a defensemen who was once an all star, who led the Capitals defense and will be counted on to lead even more this season. The other is who the spotlight will shine the brightest on. Each player got an 89 overall rating and they both rightfully deserved it.

These two were the guys who the Capitals counted on to lead them to the Stanley Cup in 2018 and they’ll be counted on once again for the Caps to get back to the promised land.

So far EA Sports has ranked 50-21 with the top 20 still to go. Alex Ovechkin will most likely be on the top 20 and maybe we’ll get a surprise or two.

Let’s take a look now at the two players EA Sports has rated among the Capitals.
