The Washington Capitals have had plenty of forwards that lit the lamp.
We’ll highlight many of these Washington Capitals players here. They’ve been around for four decades and they’ve had plenty of good forwards in the history of their franchise. There have been many great players that have donned the red, white and blue sweater (sometimes black).
To be eligible for selection, the forwards had to have played a good number of games with the Capitals. We picked 10 forwards that best contributed to the team’s success. Some of these numbers may be similar and if that’s the case we’ll go with who we think resonates well with the fanbase. Maybe one that gets a louder chant in the arena.
It’s always fun to guess which player is included in a list such as this and the goal of these posts is to encourage healthy debate among the Caps fans and discussion on who deserves a top 10 spot all time and who does not.
Without further ado, here are the Top 10 greatest Capitals forwards of all time. Let us know what you think of the selections and debate kindly Capitals fans!
