203 - Number of man-games lost by the Washington Capitals this season. Factor in the cap hit of those absences, and it’s the third-highest weighted total in the League behind only Vegas and Montreal, as the bulk of these injuries have impacted the team’s top-six forwards, with Nicklas Backstrom, T.J. Oshie and Anthony Mantha all having missed (and continuing to miss) significant time.

While this number is likely to increase when the Caps resume play on Thursday night, it does seem as if good news is on horizon, with a full roster in attendance at yesterday’s practice.
