Oshie, Day-To-Day, Gets Work In On Ice Before Capitals Optional Practice
The Washington Capitals saw a good sign with regard to forward T.J. Oshie, who got some work in on the ice before the team’s optional skate on Wednesday.
Oshie hit the ice for a little bit of individual work before the team kicked off an optional practice at 12 p.m. He skated around a bit before heading back to the dressing room, and he did not return for the remainder of the optional skate.
Oshie suffered an upper-body injury after just 1:46 minutes and two shifts against the New York Islanders on Saturday and has missed the last two games.

Among those at the optional skate included Connor McMichael, Axel Jonsson-Fjallby, Martin Fehervary, Dmitry Orlov and more.
