The Washington Capitals have re-signed Bogdan Trineyev to a one-year, two-way contract worth $775,000 at the NHL level. The 23-year-old forward, drafted in 2020, achieved career highs with the Hershey Bears, recording 22 points in 62 games during the past season. Notably, he has adapted to a more physical style of play and has become a key penalty killer. Coaches have recognized his potential for an NHL future, praising his intelligence and contributions to crucial team successes.
"We were joking, Patrick Weller runs the penalty kill, and he said to Bogdan one day, he goes, ‘I think you’re probably the only Russian penalty killer that I’ve seen.’ But he’s an intelligent player."
"He’s played on - I hate to say first, second, third, fourth line - but our fourth line was the guys that got us the winning goal in Game 6, right?"
