Strome tallied two assists, including one on the power play, and added four shots during Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Devils.
Strome helped the Capitals get off to a quick start and looked comfortable playing on the top line alongside Alex Ovechkin and newcomer Andrew Mangiapane. The 27-year-old Strome has eclipsed the 60-point barrier in each of the last two seasons and should be in line for another solid campaign in 2024-25. Still, Pierre-Luc Dubois could challenge for top-line duty if Strome struggles.
