Oshie suffered a lower-body injury vs. the Flyers on Saturday and will not play tonight vs. the Bruins. Nicklas Backstrom returns from a one-game absence to replace Oshie.

Oshie missed Monday's game after the passing of his father but will be back in the lineup on Wednesday. Oshie has played some really good hockey over the last month or so, scoring 11 goals with eight assists (19 points) in his last 19 games.

Oshie will be held out of the Capitals lineup on Monday due to personal/family reasons. Alex Ovechkin (lower-body) could be back in the lineup to replace Oshie at 5v5 and on the power-play.

Oshie missed yesterday's morning skate and was listed as a game-time decision for this afternoon's game. Oshie has just one goal inn his last six games and will be in his usual spot with Evgeny Kuznetsov and Jakub Vrana.

Oshie missed Monday's practice with an illness and may not be available for Tuesday's game vs. the Islanders. The Capitals have called him "day-to-day" and Richard Panik skated in his spot with Evgeny Kuznetsov and Jakub Vrana on the Capitals' second-line.

Unfortunately for the Capitals, it sounds like Oshie is going to be sidelined for a long period of time and will likely miss the rest of the playoffs, regardless of how deep they go. Oshie was hurt following a hard hit from Hurricanes’ winger Warren Foegele in Game 4. Devante Smith-Pelly has been recalled from Hershey (AHL) and will replace Oshie in the lineup for Game 5.

Oshie was forced to leave Sunday’s game with an upper-body injury after playing just 7:10 TOI and his status for Monday’s game remains in question. Head coach Todd Rierden said that he doesn’t think Oshie will be out long-term but that he will be re-evaluated on Monday. It seems highly unlikely that Oshie will suit up but monitor his status as puck-drop draws near.

Oshie has missed the last 11 games with a concussion but will play Tuesday vs. the Red Wings. Oshie has a chance to get on the scoresheet right away as he will skate on the right wing with Nicklas Backstrom and Alex Ovechkin. So far this season, Oshie has scored nine goals with five assists (14 points) in 18 games.

Oshie was hurt late in Wednesday’s game in Winnipeg and he will not play Friday in Colorado. With Oshie and Evgeny Kuznetsov out, players from Washington’s third line (Burakovsky—Eller—Connolly) will have to take on a larger role.

Oshie was forced to leave Monday’s game in Winnipeg after a heavy collision in the corner with Jets’ defenseman Josh Morrissey. Oshie’s head was driven to the ice after the hit and he came up a bit woozy. Oshie has four reported concussions in his career, so the Capitals will be very cautious with the winger. Oshie is questionable at the very least for Friday’s game in Colorado.
