Eller (lower-body) will be a game-time decision for Game 4 vs. the Bruins.

Eller missed Game 3 after suffering a lower-body injury in Game 2. Eller was on the ice for Friday's game-day skate, centring the third line and seeing PP2 time. Both are good signs that he will be available for Game 4 but he is officially listed as a game-time decision again.

Eller (lower-body) will be a game-time decision on Tuesday.

Eller has missed the last seven games with a lower-body injury but is expected to return to the lineup on Tuesday. While he's officially listed as a game-time decision, look for Eller to centre the third line between Richard Panik and Jakub Vrana/Conor Sheary.

Eller (lower-body) will not play Thursday vs. the Devils.

Eller continues to battle through a lower-body injury and will miss his fifth consecutive game on Thursday. The Capitals have not provided many updates on Eller, so he remains day-to-day and questionable to play in the second half of their back-to-back tomorrow.

Lars Eller
Eller (upper-body) will be a game-time decision on Sunday.

Eller has missed the last four games with an upper-body injury but practiced on Saturday and could be back in the lineup on Saturday. Eller would slot in on the second line and has one goal and one assist in seven games on the year.

Eller will not be available for Game 1 but is expected to return for Game 2.

Eller is still in quarantine after leaving the bubble for the birth of his child, so Travis Boyd will remain in the lineup for Game 1. Capitals head coach Todd Reirden is hopeful that Eller will play in Game 2 on Friday.

Lars Eller
Eller (personal) left the bubble on Wednesday and will not play on Thursday.

Eller went back to Washington on Wednesday to be with his wife for the birth of their second child. As a result, Eller won't be able to play on Thursday and will need to quarantine upon his return to the bubble, making him questionable for Sunday's game as well. Travis Boyd will replace him in the lineup.

Lars Eller
Eller (lower-body) will be a game-time decision on Sunday.

Eller was forced to leave Friday’s game with lower-body injury and is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Bruins. Eller missed Saturday’s practice but skated on his own beforehand and could be an option on Sunday. Alex Ovechkin will replace Eller if he’s unavailable.

The Capitals have signed Lars Eller to a five-year extension worth $17.5M ($3.5M AAV).

Eller was set to be an unrestricted free agent this offseason but signs a five-year extension for the exact same cap-hit he already had ($3.5M). Eller has enjoyed the best offensive season of his career to-date, as he’s on-pace for a career-high in goals (17), assists (26) and points (43) after picking up 11 goals and 17 assists (28 points) in his first 53 games of 2017-18.

Lars Eller
Eller (illness) will be a game-time decision on Tuesday.

Eller missed practice on Monday, but was back on the ice for the Capitals morning skate and is now listed as a game-time decision for tonight’s game vs. the Maple Leafs. If Eller is unable to go, Tyler Graovac will draw into the lineup. Eller has two assists in six games this season.

Lars Eller
Eller missed Monday's practice because of an illness.

Eller’s status for Tuesday’s game vs. the Maple Leafs is in question after missing Monday’s practice session with an illness. With Eller not on the ice, Tyler Graovac centred the Capitals’ third line. Eller has just assists in six games this season and doesn’t carry much fantasy value as a bottom-6 option in Washington.
