The Washington Capitals have extended a qualifying offer to Hendrix Lapierre ahead of NHL free agency, retaining his contract rights. However, they opted not to offer contracts to restricted free agents Alex Alexeyev, Pierrick Dubé, and Mitchell Gibson, which allows these players to seek opportunities elsewhere. Lapierre had a mixed season, finishing strong in the AHL with the Hershey Bears, whereas Dubé made notable contributions during his time with the Bears. The Capitals are expected to continue contract negotiations with Lapierre in the future.
