The Washington Capitals are officially in buyer mode again. General manager Chris Patrick confirmed he is “definitely actively pursuing an addition” up front, with a clear preference for a higher-end skilled winger who can help now and ideally stay beyond this season, not just a pure rental. With the standings tight and the Olympic freeze and March 6 trade deadline creeping closer, Washington is watching for the moment a legitimate top-six option actually hits the market.

The Florida Panthers bounced back from an embarrassing performance in Raleigh with a gutsy 5-2 win over the Washington Capitals in the second half of a back-to-back to close its six-game road trip on a positive note.
After the Capitals had a goal wiped off the board, the Panthers opened the scoring 13:23 into the first when Sam Bennett tracked down Aaron Ekblad’s dump in. Bennett tried to come out in front and stuff the puck past Logan Thompson. Thompson denied the bid, but kicked the puc...

The San Jose Sharks started off the team’s East Coast swing with a tilt against Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals, the rematch coming about a month after a rough outing for the Sharks at SAP Center. In what could possibly have been San Jose’s last game against the Great 8, San Jose narrowly escaped with a 3-2 victory to start the trip off on the right foot.
This game started off as a bit of a snoozer; outside of some good chances at both ends, both teams were struggling to find li...

Mike Matheson thwarts an immediate Capitals chance with a sliding strip of the puck.
Nick Suzuki gets tripped as he tries to get onto a loose puck deep in the Capitals zone, but is still able to set up Alexandre Texier for a shot, which goes off the post. No goal, but a power play.
Juraj Slafkovský hits the opposite post seconds into the power play.
It’s another hot start for the Habs that should have resulted in at least one goal, but they just need to keep ...
