Washington Capitals News

Carlson (undisclosed) is questionable to play Monday vs. the Lightning.

Carlson was nicked up in the Capitals' exhibition game but practiced returned to practice on Saturday. Given the fact that the Capitals are already locked into a playoff spot, they may play it safe with their star defenseman. Head coach Todd Reirden said that Carlson's status for Monday is still TBD, so consider him a game-time decision and check on his status during warmups.

Lindgren will start Saturday in Florida.

Lindgren allowed three goals on 30 shots in the Canadiens win over the Hurricanes on February 29th. Lindgren is 2-3-0 with a 3.37 GAA and .884 sV% in his first five NHL starts this season and will get another start tonight in Florida. Tonight he faces a Panthers team on a four-game losing streak and 1-4-2 while scoring just 2.14 goals per game in their last seven games.

Chychrun is week-to-week with a hip injury.

Chychrun missed the last two games with a hip injury that he suffered in Dallas last Wednesday. GM John Chayka met with the media on Monday and listed the young defenseman as week-to-week, which leaves a huge hole on their blueline as they try to lock-up a playoff spot in the Western Conference. So long as Chychrun is out, look for Aaron Ness to remain with the Coyotes.

Priskie was a sixth-round pick of the Washington Capitals in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft. The 23-year-old defenseman is enjoying a productive rookie season in the AHL, registering six goals and 25 assists through 52 games with the Charlotte Checkers.
