The Washington Capitals have placed left-wing Jakub Vrana on waivers, signaling a potential roster shift ahead of the NHL Trade Deadline. With a modest 11 points in 26 games this season, Vrana's recent inactivity—playing only once in 21 games since January—has contributed to this decision. As he can become an unrestricted free agent this summer and carries a low cap hit of $775,000, the Capitals are likely clearing space for a new acquisition, possibly a third-line center as they seek to bolster their roster. Concurrently, Sonny Milano is returning to practice after a lengthy injury absence. Vrana's history of clearing waivers with multiple teams raises questions about his future in the league.
