@TomGulittiNHL John Carlson (skull fracture, severed temporal artery) said he's yet to be cleared but...
"I would like to play soon. That's my goal. That's what from earlier on had in mind. I think the major hurdles are behind me certainly and I think my expectation would be to play soon."

@TomGulittiNHL Rasmus Sandin said his leg went numb for 20-25 minutes after he was hit on the outside of the knee by that shot on Wednesday. He was able to return after it felt better.
"I couldn't move it. ... It just went numb. It just went dead the whole leg. But it got better."

@TomGulittiNHL Martin Fehervary (lower body) is not dressed for warmups for Capitals and will miss his third straight game.
Nick Jensen (upper body) also missing his third straight.
@ByMattWeyrich Martin Fehervary will be a game-time decision tonight against the Devils assuming he feels good coming off the ice from morning skate, per the Caps.
Nick Jensen is day to day. Laviolette sounded pessimists yesterday he would play.
"This is an off-in-the-distance thing. But there's a process that goes with where he's at and what he's gone through, and this is the beginning of the process as far as him joining our team. Still off in the distance but nice to have him out there."
@CapitalsPR Alex Ovechkin recorded his first career goal against Kaapo Kahkonen tonight. Ovechkin has now scored at least one goal on 168 different goaltenders in his career. Only Jaromir Jagr (178) and Patrick Marleau (177) have scored on more goaltenders in NHL history.

Rasmus Sandin (3 assists) became the first defenseman to post three points in his Capitals debut and just the seventh skater to do so. Mikhail Grabovski (1-3—4 on Oct. 1, 2013) is the only skater to record more than three points in his first game with Washington.

@TomGulittiNHL Caps GM Brian MacLellan said John Carlson (hit in head with slap shot Dec. 23) will be toward end of March until he can get serious about trying to play this season.
@Tarik_ElBashir Sandin will take the morning skate but his status for tonight's game in Anaheim won't be known for a bit. He's got some immigration issues that must be sorted out. #Caps
@VogsCaps Sandin is here in Anaheim, but #Caps are working through getting his immigration/work visa details buttoned down, so he may or may not play tonight, as it stands right now.
@Tarik_ElBashir Nick Jensen has been resigned by the #Caps. Three years with a $4.05 million AAV.
