"Just as in the two previous preseason games, a few members of the Capitals' NHL roster from last season are set to make their exhibition debuts: Pierre-Luc Dubois, Jakob Chychrun, and Charlie Lindgren. Lindgren served as Clay Stevenson's backup in Hershey on Thursday night but did not see any time in net. Capitals prospects Terik Parascak, Patrick Thomas, and Cam Allen will feature in their first games this fall."
"Alex Ovechkin will not be making the trip up with the Capitals as he continues to recover from a lower-body injury. Carbery confirmed again on Saturday that he'd like to see Ovechkin play in two preseason games ahead of Opening Night against the Boston Bruins on October 8. The lineup against the Devils all practiced together in Group A at camp on Saturday, with Carbery running the players through line rushes."
