Eller had 10 goals, 13 assists, 140 SOG, 46 PIMs and a +3 plus/minus through 84 games with both Washington and Colorado in 2022-23 and has signed a two-year contract worth $4.9 million ($2.45M AAV) with Pittsburgh. The 34-year-old veteran centre is only 46 games from reaching the 1000 NHL games mark and has collected 163 goals and 371 points across his 14 year career.

Eller has seven goals, nine assists, 101 SOG, 36 PIMs and a -1 plus/minus through 60 games played with the Washington Capitals and has been traded to the Avalanche for a 2025 second-round pick Wednesday and will draw into Colorado's lineup.

Eller has seven goals, nine assists, 101 SOG, 36 PIMs and a -1 plus/minus through 60 games played with the Washington Capitals and has been traded to the Avalanche for a 2025 second-round pick. This will be the 33-year-olds fourth NHL team across 14 NHL seasons.

Eller was a healthy scratch for the Capitals' previous game but will draw back into the lineup after it was announced Nic Dowd would miss some time with a lower-body injury. Eller has seven goals, eight assists, 71 SOG, 30 PIMs and a +4 plus/minus through 44 games with Washington so far this season.

Ellers has six goals, 12 points, 14 SOG and 20 PIMs through 30 games played but will play Thursday even though he deals with an undisclosed injury. If he is forced to miss time, the Capital's replacement will need to cover his 15:05 ATOI.

Eller missed three games while in COVID-19 protocol but is set to play Sunday vs. the Stars. Eller has scored just one goal with one assist (two points) in his last 13 games.

Eller will likely miss 2-to-3 games this week after being added to the COVID-19 protocol list for the second time this season. With Eller out, look for Daniel Sprong to draw back into the Capitals lineup on Tuesday.

Eller has been out since November 14th but was back at practice on Saturday and should be back in the lineup on Sunday. Eller has scored one goal with seven assists (eight points) in 15 games this season.

Eller travelled to Anaheim but was not on the ice for the morning skate and is questionable to play on Tuesday. If Eller is not available, expect Garrett Pilon to serve as the Capitals' third-line centre.
