First Round of Cuts

The Capitals sent 20 players to Hershey today.


Defensemen: Greg Amadio, Dean Arsene, Sean Collins, Viktor Dovgan, Bryan Helmer, Sasha Pokoluk, Patrick McNeill


Forwards: Jay Beagle, Francois Bouchard, Alexandre Giroux, Maxime Lacroix, Tommy Maxwell, Graham Mink, Travis Morin, Oskar Osala, Steve Pinizotto, Darren Reid, Michael Dubuc, and Kyle Wilson.


Goalies: Michael Neuvirth



Any player not listed is still in Washington. There is the possibility of another couple cuts later today.


I am surprised to see Machesney still up there. I wouldn't be surprised actually to see him stay there and play in the next preseason game so that they can loan him out after that.


Guys like Bourque, Aucoin, Lepisto, Sloan, Varlamov, Godfrey, Perreault, and Gordon don't surprise me.


Another one that surprises me is Andrew Joudrey is still up with the Caps. That is good for him. Grant McNeill too!


If anything else happens, I will let you know.
