"The Washington Capitals made what could be their final cuts out of training camp, waiving Clay Stevenson and Ethen Frank on Sunday. The two moves were necessary due to Monday's 5 pm deadline, when all NHL teams are required to submit their 23-man Opening Night rosters. With Stevenson and Frank now either on their way to the AHL's Hershey Bears or another NHL team, the Capitals are left carrying 25 players."

The Capitals completed roster cuts by waiving Clay Stevenson and Ethen Frank to meet the NHL's 5 pm roster deadline. The team currently carries 25 players while evaluating injuries to defensemen Matt Roy and Dylan McIlrath from the preseason finale. The projected Opening Night group lists 14 forwards, seven defensemen and two goaltenders, with Roy and McIlrath on injured reserve. The roster composition shifts relative to 2024-25, with the team set to carry more forward depth and fewer extra defensemen unless injury designations change. Ivan Miroshnichenko remains waiver-exempt and could be reassigned depending on roster decisions.
