The ‘25-‘26 boredom thread..

Roy and McIlrath did not practice this morning, which tells me they will officially be on IR at the 5pm deadline. Chisholm left practice injured, possibly a skate cut. That’s potentially three injured to start the season.

Just canceled Hulu. First 2 games are national tv, so looks like Sunday the 12th will be the first time I need Monumental+. Probably gonna switch to Slingtv and then get Monumental+.  Probably end up paying around the same in the end. Only channel (that I know of) I won't be getting now is Fox Business.

A picture of Chisholm cut through his gear got posted. It doesn’t look bad. But, it’s going to need a couple days to heal properly.


Miroshnichenko has been sent to Hershey, he is waiver exempt. The roster is now 24 players. It needs to be 23 by 5pm. Having a player or two on IR will satisfy that. For now.

Well it's 2 pm...wonder if Stephenson and Frank cleared waivers.  I would assume we'd hear if they got picked up.
Mac hurt, Roy hurt, Chisholm hurt with a cut...i expect they look at 4:30 which guy is in the worst shape and put at least 1 on IR, meaning no more moves/waivers to worry over

Just announced, Frank and Stevenson cleared and are headed to Hershey.

Well that's good...i guess.  Maybe they wanted to be grabbed....get a chance to play somewhere?  Frank is right on the cusp...great wheels, decent hustle, but just a bit snakebit on scoring..which is where he was last year when he was on the NHL squad.
SO now we just find out how many D go on IR and we good to go for Wednesday.

Stevenson is good, but I don’t see him starting here unless there is an injury. I think he’s going to be trade bait this or next season.

Looks like they have BigMac on IR...


in typical Caps web management ...they post this to their website, but if you go to the team roster on their website, it has not been updated since sometime in the summer so it shows Ethan Frank on the roster, but not Lappy or Iorio

So, with my CRS in full swing, who (or which 2 starters) are Sourdif, Lapierre and Milano replacing?  (Yes, Im too lazy to look back at an old GDT)
