"The 25-year-old Swede was hurt with just 19 seconds remaining in the first frame, absorbing a hit from Oilers forward Curtis Lazar against the boards. After getting up slowly, Sandin got back into position and made a big shot block on defender Ty Emberson with the inside of his leg. The Capitals later ruled him out of the rest of the game due to a lower-body injury. He has played in 47 of the team's 53 games this season, recording 16 points (2g, 14a)."
"Roy and Wilson both played against the Oilers, with Roy skating 21:27 of ice time and Wilson not far behind at 19:31. Roy is one of just six Capitals players to feature in all 53 games this season, while Wilson is just three games removed from missing eight games with a lower-body injury. Chisholm was a healthy scratch in Edmonton and has not played since he took the ice for the Capitals against the Colorado Avalanche on January 19."
Several Washington Capitals regulars — defensemen Rasmus Sandin, Matt Roy, Declan Chisholm, and forward Tom Wilson — did not skate at practice in Seattle because they were banged-up, as noted by head coach Spencer Carbery. Sandin sustained a lower-body injury after taking a hit late in the first period against the Edmonton Oilers and was ruled out of that game; he has 16 points in 47 games this season. Roy and Wilson skated significant minutes in Edmonton, while Chisholm has not played since January 19 and was a healthy scratch in Edmonton. The Capitals face the Seattle Kraken Tuesday, then travel to Detroit on Thursday.
