Forward TJ Oshie (upper body) and defense Dmitry Orlov (lower body) is optimistic about being ready to play in the Capitals’ regular-season opener Wednesday against the Boston Bruins after practice Sunday. He did not play in Washington’s preseason finale against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Saturday.
“That night was a little scary,” said Oshie, who was injured when he was checked on the board by Red Wings forward Joe Belleno. But when I woke up in the morning, I felt so much better than I expected, but I still had to go through every step with[athletic trainer Jason Sarvas]and I was going to put it in nowhere. No, but I feel great today.”
Orlov tweaked something against the Red Wings and felt stiff the next day, so the Capitals locked him out of practice for two days.
“I feel good now,” said Orlov. “I’m feeling pretty much normal and have a few more days to get ready for the first big game of the season.” Tom Gritti
