Capitals’ Roster Battle ERUPTS as Young Guns Fight for Limited Spots



WASHINGTON CAPITALS’ Preseason Dogfight: Young Guns Shine, Roster Spots Up for Grabs

The CAPITALS stun BOSTON BRUINS 5-2 in their preseason opener, with SONNY MILANO and HENDRIX LAPIERRE making waves. GM CHRIS PATRICK warns of a fierce battle for limited roster spots, as prospects like DECLAN CHISHOLM and DYLAN MCILRATH vie for positions. LOGAN THOMPSON’s stellar goaltending takes center stage, with his impressive 80% win rate when allowing three or fewer goals. Can the CAPS replicate last season’s success between the pipes?

Discover how ALEX OVECHKIN and JOHN CARLSON’s veteran leadership blends with emerging talent, potentially making WASHINGTON a dark horse for a deep playoff run. Will the CAPITALS’ mix of experience and youth propel them to new heights in 2025-26?

  1. Love this situation, where the cream rises to the top. I’ll be glad knowing the players performing best right now will be out there. I wouldn’t consider it a bad thing if Cristall/Leonard started In Hershey. Time there would be well spent…

  2. I have this picture in my head of Dan being GM, sitting behind a huge desk, feet up, smoking a giant stogie. In walks Chuckie, and Dan points to a slogan on the wall behind him…”what have you done for me lately?”…and Lindgren smiles and says, “so you’re telling me there’s a chance” 😂
