The Caps made one move in the trade deadline on Friday and it was to shore up the bottom six. They brought in Anthony Beauvillier and after practicing for the first time on Saturday is expected to make his Capitals debut today.
Spencer Carbery said post Saturday's skate:
"I'm just getting to know him. I've seen quite a bit of him in the past, most recently over the last couple years, but also following his career in New York, where he was there for a long time and part of those quality teams that they had - for call it a good 10 year stretch - When Barry (Trotz) was there and even before that. "Spencer Carbery
Beauvillier had 13 goals and 20 points with the Pens while averaging 13 minutes per game while missing just one game prior to the trade. His 12 goals at five on five were the third most among all the flightless birds this season.
