Hunter Shepard misses Capitals practice in Columbus with lower-body injury
Briefly

Washington Capitals' goaltender Hunter Shepard is under evaluation for a lower-body injury, impacting his preseason participation and potentially affecting team roster decisions.
As Washington navigates their goaltending options, Hunter Shepard’s strong AHL performance last season (27-4-3, 1.76 GAA) raises his value on waivers.
Despite being the back-to-back Calder Cup champion, Hunter Shepard's presence is necessary for the Capitals, though he may need to clear waivers first.
With competition for goaltending spots at the Hershey Bears training camp, Washington faces a challenge as they consider Shepard’s potential future on the roster.
