The Washington Capitals showcased significant improvement in the 2024-25 season, achieving a record of 51-22-9, which propelled them to the second round of the playoffs for the first time since 2018. This turnaround was largely attributed to an aggressive offseason where a third of the roster was revamped. While General Manager Chris Patrick acknowledges the potential for fewer roster changes this summer, he remains open to strategic additions amidst a heightening free agency climate due to an increased salary cap.
With a rising cap environment, a lot of teams that are looking to spend - the prices, I think we saw it at the trade deadline with the prices going up, I think it could follow the same path here in free agency.
We had some big spots to fill last year, our goals for roster spots. This year, there's fewer holes. We've had some growth in young players.
