Washington Capitals News
The Capitals have signed Gabriel Carlsson to a one-year, two-way contract.
The Capitals have signed Ludwig Persson to a three-year, entry-level contract.
The Capitals selected Persson with the No.85 overall pick in this summer's NHL Draft. The Swedish winger had 61 points (25G / 36A) in 41 games with Vastra Frolunda Jr. (Sweden J20 SuperElit) in 2022.
The Capitals have signed Alexander Suzdalev to a three-year, entry-level contract.
The Capitals selected Suzdalev with the No.70 overall pick in this summer's NHL Draft. The Russian winger had 51 points (15G / 36A) in 45 games with HV71 Jr. (Sweden J20 SuperElit) in 2022.
The Jets have signed Alex Limoges to a one-year, entry-level contract.
Limoges played the last season and a half with the San Diego Gulls (AHL) after finishing his four years at Penn St. University. In 2022, Limoges led the Gulls in goals (23) and points (40) in 62 games. He'll likely report to Manitoba (AHL).
The Capitals have signed Henrik Borgstrom to a one-year, two-way contract.
Borgstrom was the No.23 overall pick in 2016 and was traded to Chicago in 2021. He never really carved out a large role with the Blackhawks, finishing the 2022 season with just seven points (4G / 3A) in 52 games. In Washington, he'll likely start the season with Hershey (AHL) but could be the first call-up when the Capitals are in need of a centre.
The Capitals have signed Dylan Strome to a one-year deal worth $3.5 million.
With Nicklas Backstrom recently undergoing hip surgery and expected to miss an extended period of time, the Capitals sign Strome to a one-year deal, presumably to be their No.2 centre in 2022-23. Strome excelled while playing up in the Blackhawks lineup last season but found himself near the bottom of the depth chart often as well. If he sticks on the second line with players like Anthony Mantha and T.J Oshie, Strome should be able to replicate the 22 goals and 26 assists (48 points) we saw from him a season ago.
The Sabres have signed Chase Priskie to a one-year, two-way contract.
Priskie had a solid 2022 season with the Charlotte Checkers (AHL), posting eight goals with 23 assists (31 points) in 54 games. The 26-year-old showcased his offensive game in four years at Quinnipiac University and will look crack the NHL with the Sabres in 2022-23.
The Blackhawks have signed Luke Philp to a one-year, two-way contract.
The Avalanche have signed Spencer Smallman to a two-year, two-way contract.
The Capitals have signed Charlie Lindgren to a three-year contract worth $3.3 million ($1.1M AAV).
$125 Waivers
The Blackhawks have placed Henrik Borgstrom on unconditional waivers for purpose of buying out final year of his contract.
Wilson (lower-body) will not play in Game 4 vs. the Panthers.
Wilson has not played since early in the first period of Game 1 and will miss his third straight game on Monday. With Wilson still out, T.J. Oshie will continue to skate on the Capitals' top line with Evgeny Kuznetsov and Alex Ovechkin.
Wilson (lower-body) will not play in Game 3 vs. the Panthers.
Wilson (lower-body) will not play in Game 2.
Wilson left Game 1 after suffering a lower-body injury in the first period. He's considered day-to-day and the Capitals would not commit to his status beyond tonight's game. Brett Leason will make his Stanley Cup Playoff debut in Wilson's spot.
Wilson (lower-body) will be a game-time decision for Game 2.
Wilson played just 1:31 TOI in Game 1 before departing with a lower-body injury. The Capitals did not provide much of an update on his status but called him a game-time decision for Game 2, which suggests his injury isn't overly serious. Connor McMichael or Axel Jonsson-Fjallby will likely draw to replace Wilson if he can't play.
Ovechkin (upper-body) will play Game 1 in Florida.
Ovechkin missed the final three games of the regular season but is good-to-go for Game 1 vs. the Panthers. Ovechkin's outstanding career continued in 2022, scoring 50+ goals for the ninth time and 90+ points for the sixth time.
The Capitals have signed Bogdan Trineyev to a three-year, entryl-level contract.
