The Washington Capitals are hitting the ice ahead of training camp, and the early informal skates at MedStar Iceplex are already setting the tone for the season. Veterans like Alex Ovechkin, Tom Wilson, Dylan Strome, and Pierre-Luc Dubois are pushing the pace, while newcomer Justin Sourdif is turning heads with his versatility and proven scoring touch from the AHL. These competitive sessions are more than just warmups — they’re raising the bar across the roster and giving coach Spencer Carbery a closer look at who’s ready to contribute from day one.
Beyond the veterans, the spotlight is also on the next generation of Capitals talent. First-round pick Lynden Lakovic continues to show upside with his size and two-way game, while Andrew Cristall’s elite scoring touch and improved skating could make him the breakout story of camp. With roster battles heating up in the middle and bottom six, and special teams roles still up for grabs, Washington fans can expect a fascinating blend of veteran leadership and youthful competition shaping the Capitals’ 2025 season.
