"Nothing new at this point, still out in Vancouver. Visa has been resolved. I'm sure he's still working out, but I haven't gotten an update [on whether] he's been able to get on the ice."
"The Capitals dealt a sixth-round pick to the Canucks to bring in Kampf at the deadline. If he's not back in DC and ready to play against the New Jersey Devils on Friday night, he'll have just 12 remaining possible games to get into for the Caps this season."
David Kampf, acquired by the Washington Capitals at the trade deadline in exchange for a sixth-round pick, has yet to make his debut with the team. Initial visa issues prevented him from playing in his first four games, and he subsequently traveled to Vancouver to be present for the birth of his second child. Head coach Spencer Carbery confirmed the visa issues have been resolved, though Kampf remains in Vancouver. With only 12 games remaining in the regular season, Kampf faces a compressed timeline to appear for the Capitals. The team has experimented with various players at fourth-line center during his absence, including Connor McMichael, Justin Sourdif, and Hendrix Lapierre.
