McMichael scored a goal on two shots, added two PIM and went plus-3 in Saturday's 7-3 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
The Capitals' passing on the play put the Oilers' defense in a blender, with McMichael finishing off a shot from between the circles at 19:45 of the second period to stretch the lead to 5-1. It was his 20th goal of the season -- this is the first time the 24-year-old has reached that mark.

McMichael tallied an assist, a plus-3 rating and three shots during Saturday's 8-3 win over the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
McMichael has points in five of his last six games and has mustered three goals and 12 points in 19 games since the calendar turned over into 2025. The 23-year-old has a chance to post his first 60-point campaign if he can stay hot down the stretch and should provide solid dividends for fantasy managers in the process.

McMichael notched an assist in Sunday's 5-4 shootout loss to Utah.
EDGE Analysis
McMichael has two goals and seven helpers over his last 10 outings.

He's now at 19 goals, 22 helpers, 119 shots on net and a plus-15 rating over 55 appearances and should have a shot at securing his first 60-point season.

McMichael recorded an assist in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
McMichael has warmed up again with four helpers over his last four outings. He's up to 10 games without a goal, but a cooldown in that area was expected after he shot 16.7 percent through the end of December. Overall, the 24-year-old is still authoring a breakout campaign with 36 points, 111 shots on net and a plus-12 rating across 49 appearances.

McMichael posted an assist, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
McMichael helped out on Matt Roy's second-period go-ahead goal. While he hasn't scored in eight contests, McMichael has warmed up again with three assists over his last two games. The 24-year-old is at 17 goals, 18 helpers, 105 shots on net, 24 hits, 20 PIM and a plus-10 rating through 47 appearances. He's already secured a career year, and while his offense has slowed recently, he remains in a top-six role that could allow him to pick up the pace again at any time.

EDGE Analysis

McMichael scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
McMichael's offense went cold in December -- he had a modest six points over 13 contests. It's started to cost him playing time -- his 12:41 of ice time Saturday was his lowest mark of the season, and he was listed on the third line. Even with the slowdown, McMichael is within striking distance of earning a career year. He has 17 goals and 14 assists over 39 contests, one shy in each category from his marks over 80 regular-season appearances in 2023-24. He's added 99 shots on net and a plus-8 rating this season, and if he can get things turned around, he'll likely return to the top six.
