    Jakob Chychrun Placed on Injured Reserve, Vincent Iorio Called Up as Team Prepares for Weekend Games Against Columbus and Carolina
    Nov 2 2024
    The Washington Capitals are entering November on a positive note after finishing October with a solid 7-2-0 record, including recent victories over the New York Rangers and Montreal Canadiens. Unfortunately, defenseman Jakob Chychrun has been placed on injured reserve due to an upper-body injury, while Matt Roy remains sidelined with a lower-body injury, although both are making progress. In their absence, Vincent Iorio has been recalled from the AHL to potentially fill in. The Capitals are set to host the Columbus Blue Jackets this weekend, who are looking to bounce back from a recent loss and have had a surprising start to the season. Washington's offense has notably improved, with players like Dylan Strome, Alex Ovechkin, and Connor McMichael contributing significantly to a higher goal average than last season.

    Capitals vs. Rangers: Lineup Changes, Lapierre's Reset, Thompson in Net, and Roy's Progress
    Oct 29 2024
    The Washington Capitals are set to take on the New York Rangers, hoping for a better outcome than last season's sweep. The lineup will see Mike Sgarbossa take over as third-line center due to Hendrix Lapierre being a healthy scratch after struggling without a point in his first seven games. Coach Spencer Carbery believes this break will help Lapierre reset mentally. Other than these changes, the forward lines and defensive pairings remain unchanged, with Sonny Milano and Alex Alexeyev also scratched. Logan Thompson is starting in goal, continuing the rotation with Charlie Lindgren. Additionally, Matt Roy will sit out his seventh consecutive game due to a lower-body injury but is making progress, participating in morning skate in a non-contact jersey.

  • Caps select Terik Parascak at 17 l UFAs and RFAs l The addition of Andrew Mangiapane

    Caps select Terik Parascak at 17 l UFAs and RFAs l The addition of Andrew Mangiapane
    Jun 29 2024
    Topic 1: Trade Details
    The Washington Capitals have made modifications to their forward lines by securing the services of Andrew Mangiapane from the Calgary Flames ahead of the 2024 NHL Draft. General manager Brian MacLellan disclosed that Washington traded a 2025 second-round pick to Calgary in return for Mangiapane. Moreover, the Calgary Flames have traded Andrew Mangiapane to the Washington Capitals for a 2025 second-round pick.
    Topic 2: Andrew Mangiapane's Performance
    During the last season with the Flames, Mangiapane showcased his prowess with 14 goals and 26 assists, accumulating 40 points in 75 games. Notably, he recorded 72 high-danger scoring chances at 5-on-5, the highest on Calgary's roster. This transaction comes on the heels of Washington's recent acquisition of Pierre-Luc Dubois.
    Topic 3: Contract Details
    Mangiapane is in the final season of a three-year contract with a $5.8 million AAV, signed in August 2022. Having spent his entire seven-year career with the Flames, Mangiapane was originally selected by Calgary in the sixth round of the 2015 draft.
    Topic 4: Calgary Flames' Perspective
    The Calgary Flames made the decision to trade Mangiapane taking into consideration his age, contractual details, and performance. Additionally, shedding his $5.8 million AAV without retaining salary represents a significant benefit for the Flames. The acquisition of a second-round pick will support the Flames in their long-term retooling efforts.
    Topic 5: Cap Space and Draft Picks
    The Flames currently hold just under $29 million in cap space, according to CapFriendly. Following this transaction, the Calgary Flames now possess four picks (two first-round and two second-round) in the first two rounds of the 2025 NHL Draft. This is in consideration of the Flames potentially losing a first-round pick in the upcoming draft due to the Sean Monahan trade.

    The summary of the provided text is as follows:
    - Terik Parascak had a remarkable season in the WHL, leading to his selection by the Washington Capitals in the 2024 NHL Draft.
    - The Washington Capitals have not re-signed Max Pacioretty or Nicolas Aube-Kubel, who are the team's only unrestricted free agents.
    - The team acquired Andrew Mangiapane from the Calgary Flames by trading a 2025 second-round pick.
    - Mangiapane had an impressive performance with the Flames last season, recording 40 points in 75 games and leading in high-danger scoring chances at 5-on-5.

Shepard and Lindgren are valued prospects for the Washington Capitals' goaltending position. Lindgren provided the Capitals with capable goaltending, posting a .910 save percentage and a 2.65 goals against average in his last ten games of the regular season. Additionally, Hunter Shepard had a remarkable season in the AHL, leading in goals-against average and save percentage, and making his NHL debut with the Washington Capitals.
