Lars Eller returned to the Washington Capitals after being reacquired from the Pittsburgh Penguins, aiming to fill the third-line center role due to Hendrix Lapierre's struggles. He expressed excitement about rejoining a familiar team, emphasizing his positive experiences during the regular season, including Ovechkin's achievements. However, his postseason ended disappointingly as he was a healthy scratch in a crucial playoff game against the Hurricanes, which Eller found frustrating given his prior significant contributions to the team.
It was great. I felt very fortunate to be part of this team or organization one more time... Obviously, we did a lot of winning during the regular season.
It's disappointing, disappointing is probably a short way to describe it, yeah.
