Matt Cullen
Matt Cullen is another free agent center who the Washington Capitals should definitely consider signing. Not only is he still a productive player despite being 38 years old (and turning 39 in November), he’s also quite good in the face-off circle. How good is he at face-offs? He hasn’t had a face-off win percentage below 50% since 2009-2010.
Last season with the Nashville Predators, he had 25 points. Not bad from somebody who averaged just a tick over 13 minutes a game in 62 games. His HERO chart suggests that he tends to have a positive influence on his teammates as well.

If the Washington Capitals are looking to add a pure center, Cullen is probably their best option. He could also play left wing. I’m not sure what his price would be. Whatever it is, it would most likely be worth it.
