In Game 1 against the Montreal Canadiens, Alex Alexeyev suffered a high-stick injury that required significant dental work. Capitals coach Spencer Carbery indicated that Alexeyev is expected to return for the next game, highlighting his increased importance following the announcement of Martin Fehervary's knee surgery, which will keep him out for the playoffs. Alexeyev's performance prior to the injury was notable, contributing positively to the teamâs play with solid statistics in shot attempts and opportunities created while on the ice.
Alexeyev's status is now doubly important after the Capitals announced defenseman Martin Fehervary will miss the remainder of the playoffs after undergoing knee surgery.
Capitals head coach Spencer Carbery shared postgame that Alexeyev was in for some 'significant dental work' and provided a further update on Alexeyev's status.
