Fingers crossed for Vrana. 5th fav Cap all time(1-Ciccarelli 2- Ovi 3- Backstrom 4- Bondra 5-Vrana)
GO CAPS!
My projected lines to begin the season:
Ovi-Strome-Mangiapane
McMichael-PLD-Wilson
Milano-Lapierre-Protas
Duhaime-Dowd-Raddysh
Chychrun-Carlson
Sandin-Roy
Fehervary-TvR
I think the team will start the season with Alexeyev and Bear as the 7th and 8th defensemen, but it wouldn't surprise me if they offload one of Bear or van Riemsdyk. I think Miroshnichenko has the best chance of being the 13th forward, but Vrana can earn himself a contract and be the 13th or 14th man depending on how many D-men they keep to begin.
Caps lineup seems to be way up in the air. That is a great problem to have for a team that has struggled to field quality depth at all positions for a number of years.
dont forget we get Leonard as we go into playoffs., love vrana, i think he makes it!
