Practice: Dec. 12

Written by Harry Hawkings.

The Washington Capitals were on ice for practice Monday morning as they prepare to take on the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday night.  Some updates from Kettler Capitals Iceplex:

The entire team, except Mike Green, was present for the skate.  This included Jay Beagle, who is working his way back from a concussion, and Matt Hendricks, who missed most of last week with a knee injury.  The fact that Green missed another practice, and has now not skated for four days in a row, officially indicates that he has had a setback in my book, regardless of what Dale Hunter or the team feels like revealing.

The lines remained the same as they were Friday night: Ovechkin-Backstrom-Semin, Brouwer-Johansson-Halpern, Chimera-Laich-Ward, and Hendricks-Eakin-Knuble-Perreault.  Poor Knuble, someone get him out of the dungeons. Please.

That's all for now.
