The ‘24-‘25 boredom thread..
« on: Yesterday at 02:18:49 PM »
Training camp started today, so, new season new thread. I don’t make the rules.
 :-|


Management has said Oshie and Backstrom will be on LTIR all season, which gives the team a little breathing room in cap space. According to the crappy cap sites still available for free, the Caps are $10.27M over the cap. Backy and Oshie being on LTIR will save $14.95M. Which should give the Caps $4.68M of cap space. That will be nice when the inevitable injury happens.


Ovechkin apparently has a minor injury, but is skating with the team. Rasmus Sandin is still in Sweden.. visa issues.

Technically Vrana is not on the team roster. He’s in camp on PTO.
