A pretty remarkable display by Gagner but we don't expect him to turn into Gretzky or Coffey this season. The 8 point night gives him 30 on the season and 10 in his last 10 games.
The journeyman center gives the Caps a bit more depth down the middle.
The rookie Read is bumped down to the fourth line. He has 15 goals and 31 points through 46 games.
Look for Rinaldo to start tonight's game on the third line. The pugilist has a very useful 124 PIM through 36 games.
In 12 career starts against the Devils, Price has a 5-6-1 record with a 2.26 GAA, .923 SV% and one shutout.
In four career appearances against the Canes, Rask has a 2-1-0 record with a 2.59 GAA and .905 SV%.
Stapleton isn't even travelling with the team, making this move a paper transaction. He scored seven goals and 14 points through 37 games before getting hurt.
Moen will miss a few more games. The gritty winger was enjoying a career season with nine goals and 16 points through 46 games.
Nikitin moves onto the IR as a paper move. He is eligible to come off injury reserve at any time but will miss a few more weeks with his current knee injury.
Morris has been out since January 21st with a lower-body injury. He's likely a few games away from returning.
Great news for Carter, who has been out with a separated shoulder since early January. He has only 10 goals and 17 points on the season.
In seven career starts against the Sens, Nabokov has a 3-3-0 record with a 2.94 GAA, .884 SV% and one shutout.
Carman adds depth to the Caps' farm team. He has three goals and six points in 28 games.
Richmond gives the Avs' farm team a veteran offensive weapon. He is highly unlikely to play in the NHL.
Marshall got a brief cup of coffee with the Flyers earlier this season. Expect him to add depth to the Caps' system.
In his first season in the Capitals organization, Ford scored 10 goals and 28 points through 39 games. He likely adds minor league depth to the Flyers' system.
Cleary is a trooper and will play through the burst cyst. He has 10 goals and 22 points through 51 games this season.
Smith-Pelly continues to skate as he looks to play his first game since the World Juniors. He likely returns to the lineup sometime in February.
Blake continues to progress and could get back into the lineup shortly. The Moorhead, Minnesota native has four goals and eight points through 15 games. Last night, Niklas Hagman took his place on the second line.
Eakin goes back to the AHL in order to clear room for Alex Ovechkin. He has four goals and eight points through 29 games.
