A few notes on some statistical adjustments that are in the works for Washington. First, Keith Aucoin will be credited with an assist on Chris Clark's Oct. 22 goal at Atlanta. If you recall, Aucoin won a draw back to Mike Green who let a shot fly from the point. The puck bounded off the glass/boards behind the Thrashers' net and came to Clark, who deposited it for his first of the season.

Aucoin now has a goal and four points in his six games with the Capitals this season.

Also, further review shows that Brendan Morrison and Brooks Laich were on the ice when Atlanta's Zach Bogosian netted a last-second goal last night. Tomas Fleischmann and David Steckel were not, as the official scoresheet indicated. Therefore, add a plus-1 to Fleischmann and Steckel's ledger and a minus-1 to that of Morrison and Laich.
