Jay Beagle, Productivity, and Realism
A quick look at Jay Beagle's surprising productivity, and the reality behind it. If back in October someone had told you that by mid-February Jay Beagle— he of 13 goals and 14 assists in 192 career NHL games entering this season— would be such a lightning rod for discussion amidst a so-far successful campaigns that offers plenty of other compelling storylines, you'd likely have inquired as to the contents of that someone's pipe. But here we are, the playoff picture shaping up nicely, and coming off a 3-point game (2g, 1a) in which he led the Caps to their first ROW in San Jose since...

It was a close game, possession-wise, throughout but two goals from Brent Burns and a late equalizer from Joe Thornton weren't enough to survive the Jay Beagle show in San Jose. The trouble for San Jose started when the starting lines hit the ice — with the dreaded Burns and Scott Hannan making up the top defensive pairing to...
