Top Washington Capital's wing player returns from an injury

The Washington Capitals receive a massive thrust for game 5 of their opening series. With the chance of eliminating the Montreal Canadiens, the caps have a power striker in the line -up.

The social media of the capitals shared the encouraging update. This will be the first game of Protas in almost a month, which was last played in a competition on April 4 against the Chicago Blackhawks.

This season was a breakout campaign for the 24-year-old winger, and the caps hope that he can continue this impressive series in the off-season. In 76 regular games of the regular season, he scored 30 goals, 36 assists and 66 points. On average over 16 minutes of ice age, he achieved career numbers in every offensive category.

This next step is the highlight of the captains of the capitals for Protas. It started in 2019 when the organization selected the Belarusian striker in the third round. It was a long way to become a Top-Six striker in NHL, but he has entered the conversation in a dominant way.

With the return of Protas, the capitals receive another advantage. You already have a dominant series leadership and are only a win outside the second round. Adding the physical, 6'6 “, 250-pound wing player is another factor for the Canadia for their defense.

Protas should also help specifically on the Internet. He made a living a terror for goalkeepers. With its hulcing size, it is difficult to disappoint and win consistently position battles.

The Canadiens begin the rookie goalkeeper Jakub Dons. It is a physically impressive net reduced, which continues at 6'4 “without skates. The Matchup between Protas and Doben on the network front will observe the entire game for so long. If Protas and the capitals are successful, the Handshake line begins at the end of game 5 when the caps continue into the second round.
